“Crucified” was originally recorded in 1991 song by the Swedish band Army of Lovers for their Massive Luxury Overdose album. Army of Lovers remade the song in 2013 calling it “Crucified 2013.” Ghost covered the song in 2013 putting more of a dark/rock spin on it.
[Intro: Papa Emeritus II]
I'm crucified, crucified like my Savior
Saint-like behavior, a lifetime I prayed, yeah
[Verse 1: Papa Emeritus II]
I've seen the deepest darkness and wrestled with the Gods
I ride the noble harness, raining cats and dogs
I stand before my Maker like Moses on the hill
My Guinness record baker, I abide your will
The first of reciter, I saw eternal light
Best of vocal fighters beyond human sight
Where thorns are a teaser, I've played a double jeu
Yherushalaim at Easter, I cry I pray mon Dieu
[Chorus: Papa Emeritus II]
I'm crucified, crucified like my Saviour
Saint-like behavior, a lifetime I prayed
I'm crucified for the holy dimension
Godlike ascension, Heaven's away
[Verse 2: Papa Emeritus II]
I've seen the deepest darkness and wrestled with the Gods
I ride the noble harness, raining cats and dogs
I stand before my Maker like Moses on the hill
My Guinness record baker, I abide your will
Prophets I've been reading, stories I've been told
Before I end my breathing, I travel in the soul
Where thorns are a teaser, I've played a double jeu
I cry I pray mon Dieu, adieu mon Dieu
[Chorus: Papa Emeritus II]
I'm crucified, crucified like my Saviour
Saint-like behavior, a lifetime I prayed
I'm crucified for the holy dimension
Godlike ascension, Heaven's away
[Guitar Solo]
[Pre-Chorus: Papa Emeritus II]
I'm crucified, crucified like my Saviour
Saint-like behavior, a lifetime I prayed
[Chorus: Papa Emeritus II]
I'm crucified, crucified like my Saviour
Saint-like behavior, a lifetime I prayed
I'm crucified for the holy dimension
Godlike ascension, Heaven's away
I'm crucified, crucified like my Saviour
Saint-like behavior, a lifetime I prayed
[Outro: Papa Emeritus II]
I'm crucified, crucified like my Saviour
Saint-like behavior, a lifetime I prayed
