La Chiesa
Rosae Crucis Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Infami omicidi ha commesso la Chiesa
Morte al blasfemo che vive quaggiщ.
Scudi e corazze non coprono il velo
Di quella croce eretta per noi.

Corse al galoppo, in sella o guerriero
Prepara la lama che ti salverа.
La Chiesa Cristina e l'Infame Rivale
Lottano a morte per la sovranitа.

Croce Rovesciata come simbolo del male
L'impuritа spavalda non ci puт piщ far tremare
Croce Rovesciata anch'essa segno del Signore
L'impuritа annidata nelle braccia del Salvatore.

Strane potenze e oscuri Signori
Uomini morti tornati quassщ.
Simboli arcani e riti pagani
Invocano il male a tornare tra noi.

Ma il male giа esiste annidato nel puro
Pensieri blasfemi nella Santitа
Povere menti soggiogate dal Clero
Accecato nel cuore dalle false virtщ.

Croce Rovesciata come simbolo del male
L'impuritа spavalda non ci puт piщ far tremare




Croce Rovesciata anch'essa segno del Signore
L'impuritа annidata nelle braccia del Salvatore.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "La Chiesa" by Rosae Crucis are about the corruption and violence within the Christian Church. The opening line, "Infami omicidi ha commesso la Chiesa" (The Church has committed infamous murders), sets the tone for the rest of the song. The lyrics talk about how the Church has killed blasphemers and how even their shields and armor cannot conceal the evil within their organization. The second verse describes a battle between the Christian Church and an evil rival, with the singer preparing his blade for combat.


The chorus refers to the symbol of the inverted cross, which is typically associated with Satanism and the occult. However, the lyrics state that this symbol no longer scares them. Instead, they see it as a sign of the Lord, with impurity nestled in the arms of the Savior. The final verse talks about the darkness and pagan rituals that have been invoked to bring back evil, but the singer notes that blasphemy and corruption already exist within the Church itself.


Overall, "La Chiesa" is a commentary on the hypocrisy and violence within organized religion. It suggests that the Church portrays itself as a force of good, but in reality, it is as corrupt and violent as the "strange powers and dark lords" it opposes.
