Encamped round fires of battle site
Enchanted by flames that lick the night
Mystified and held at bay
By mythical legends to this very day
Of gem encrested swords that held
Powers enlisted by wizardry spells
Tallowed candles weeped their shadows
Within dungeons filled with hosts of battle
As crystals cast their fiery glow
They who read the tarot know
Of legends alternate to those they tell
That speak no romance, but depths of hell
Of torture chambers meant for those
Whose loyalties were as they so chose
Of kings and kingdoms ever more put asunder
For quests of Holy Grail they plunder
In holy name of God came they
A trojan horse called the Crusade
They raped and they pillaged abusing power
To have more than his worth turned His Highness sour
And all the kings horses and all the kings men
Spent hundreds of years putting him together again
