Crusader, crusader.

Useless crusader,
What cross do you carry?
Is it yours to bear,
or far too heavy?
Esurient crusader,
whose words do you speak?
Do they come from your tongue,
or are they phrases from a land not your own?
Crusader crusader,
lay down the cross you carry,
quiet the words you speak,
and find your own.
Crusader crusader,
take not the burdens
of your fellows
because every cross
is only as tall as the man who carries it.
Crusader crusader,
lay down the words you speak,
for they are not your weapons,
but your tools.
