Paradox

Paradox - 700 Years On lyrics

Your rating:

[How the events of the 13th century are remembered today, and does it really have any boaring on today's society]



A country splintered by religion

Torn by anarchy

Heretics burned for their derision of the holy See

Seven hundred years on



World, do you recall

Just what happened then

Gentlemen and Gentlewomen

Let into the pyre

Seven hundred years ago



Let's think

Images of war

Flashing swords, burning homes

The Albigensian Crusade

See the ruins upon the hills

Just seven hundred years on



So now in nineteen eighty nine

How much do we know

Except for learned scholars

No-one knows at all



Blind

Apathy

Forgotten

A part of history



Flashing swords, burning homes

The Albigensian Crusade

See the ruins upon the hills

Just seven hundred years on



To blind to see that religion's free

Believe what you believe

Established Churches still don't agree

Seven hundred years on



Heresy a different route

From mother church in Rome

See us, we're hurting no-one

Why can't you leave us alone



Hunted

Persued

Burnt

Marched into the fire

Oh, then!
