They are protectors of terror

They are protectors of terror



They're in the business of illusion



An empire built on pain

The almighty's inquisition

They're a fire burning out of control



A thousand years of praying

Of faith, morality

A thousand years of slaying

Of terror in the name of the cross



Will you pray - will you cry

Thou shalt not bear the false witness

When brothers in faith

Turn to brothers in arms

Thou shalt not make unto thee

Any graven images

How many more have to die



They are protectors of terror

They are protectors of terror



You pay for your salvation

You have to bend your knees in pain

No surrender to temptation

You're a slave to the eye of the lord



Will you pray - will you cry

Thou shalt not take the name

Of the lord thy god in vain

When brothers in faith

Turn to brothers in arms

Thou shalt not covet

Thy neighbour's oxen

How many more have to die



They are protectors of terror

They are protectors of terror

They are protectors of terror - they are protectors

They are protectors of terror



Fear not those who dare to tread

Upon the ashes of the chosen ones

They will drink the spillage of the blood

Behind closed doors the darkest one

Prepares his altar of death



They are protectors - will you pray - will you cry

Of terror - when brothers in faith turn to brothers in arms

They are protectors - how many more have to die



Laws carved in stone are rewritten in blood



They are protectors of terror

They are protectors of terror

They are protectors of terror - they are protectors

They are protectors of terror



They are protectors of terror
