The Templars

Pawns in the Game

The Templars


Charging down the field with shield and lance in hand 
Showing no mercy to your foes, gloriously defending your land 
doing deeds for the church, no idea that your being used 
While false charges are devised the Templar knights stand accused 
CHORUS 
Warrior priests, so trusting and so brave 
put to an end and left in shame 
church officials, like politicians 
always seeking pawns in their game.....their game 
Your powerful control over Europe is what they'll always desire 
being the biggest threat, you're put to brimstone and fire 
all the deeds done in their name, that doesn't really matter 
what matters is power and wealth, making their pockets fatter 
CHORUS 
1118 to 1312 your grip is strong over the land 
we praise your warriors and your deeds 
and the tales of glory, so numerous indeed!....indeed! 
Now it's 1994, we remember your fate so well 
honoring religious bastards whose leaders now reside in hell 
churches act as factions, they use, abuse and throw away 
You'll never be forgotten, spirits in our hearts you'll remain
