Justin Vernon
Conquistadors
[Verse 1]
I came along on bended knee
Careful they wouldn't make it be
I was made a heart of men
I was never hoisted firm
[Chorus]
My hands, my rope
My key, my door
Yeah, compassion grows
But conquistador
[Bridge]
Title of the song
[Verse 2]
Hitler and the twelfth Pope of Pius can't hide
I was killed by my own kind
In a Holocaust, faith burns
Yeah, you should be shocked, you should turn
[Chorus]
My hands, my rope
My key, my door
Yeah, compassion grows
But conquistador
[Outro]
My blood has been spilled
Henceforth, the Catholic guilt
My blood has been spilled
Henceforth, the Catholic guilt
