Lyrics

[Intro] [Verse 1] Watching them come and go The Templars and the Saracens They're travelling the holy land Opening telegrams, woah oh Torture comes and torture goes Knights who'd give you anything They bear the cross of Coeur de Lion Salvation for the mirror blind, woah oh [Pre-Chorus] But if you pray All your sins are hooked upon the sky Pray and the heathen lie will disappear [Chorus 1] Prayers they hide the saddest view (Believing the strangest things, loving the alien) And your prayers, they break the sky in two (Believing the strangest things, loving the alien) [Interlude] [Verse 2] Thinking of a different time Palestine a modern problem Bounty and your wealth in land Terror in a best laid plan, woah oh Watching them come and go Tomorrows and the yesterdays Christians and the unbelievers Hanging by the cross and nail, woah oh [Pre-Chorus] But if you pray All your sins are hooked upon the sky Pray and the heathen lie will disappear, oh [Chorus 1] Prayers they hide the saddest view (Believing the strangest things, loving the alien) And your prayers, they'll break the sky in two (Believing the strangest things, loving the alien) [Chorus 2] You pray til the break of dawn (Believing the strangest things, loving the alien) And you’ll believe you’re loving the alien (Believing the strangest things, loving the alien) (Believing the strangest things, loving the alien) [Outro]
