Crucified--the original, and a cover

I haven't listened to this song in a few years, but I found a cover version, so now I have twice the fun!

The original, by Army of Lovers:



The cover, by Ghost:


I'm crucified, crucified like my savior
Saintlike behavior, a lifetime I prayed
I'm crucified for the holy dimension
Godlike ascension, heavens away

I've seen the deepest darkness and wrestled with gods
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 jeux
Yherushalaim at Easter
I cry, I pray, mon dieu
I cry, I pray, mon dieu

I'm crucified, crucified like my savior
Saintlike behavior, a lifetime I prayed
I'm crucified for the holy dimension
Godlike ascension, heavens away

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 the double jeux
Yherushalaim at Easter
I cry, I pray, mon dieu
I cry, I pray, mon dieu
I cry, I pray, mon dieu
Adieu, mon dieu

I'm crucified, crucified like my savior
Saintlike behavior, a lifetime I prayed
I'm crucified for the holy dimension
Godlike ascension, heavens away

I'm crucified for the holy dimension
Godlike ascension, heavens away
I'm crucified, crucified like my savior
Saintlike behavior, a lifetime I prayed
I'm crucified for the holy dimension
Godlike ascension, heavens away
