I hadn't come up with any viable ideas for a couple of days. Since Steve suggested to try writing the song from the assassin's perspective I tried that approach - and  new ideas started flowing again. This is what I put down on saturday:

 

Verse I

I'm the Knight Templar
fighting for the good cause
I'll die an honored martyr
I won't rest, I won't pause   [I used my rhyming dictionary here]
I'll point the way for others
a beacon in the night         [I used a dictionary here scrapping "signal", and preferring "beacon"]
we'll stand for one another
in out righteous fight

Verse II

I'll accept no weakness
and no laxity
our efforts will be ceaseless
to end democracy
 
I'm the Nordic hero
I'm the guiding light
I'm the modern Nero
a Caesar's always right

[actually I wrote the following lines first,
but I changed the order so the words

rhyming on 'ight' would not be placed
directly after similar lines in the first verse]

 

I also wrote a bridge (or whatever a different part would be called here as there is no chorus):

 

if you want to win the war
hit the enemies at their core
never mind some casualties
don't waste your time with trivialities
like their misconceived humanity
