Witch Trials

Paranoia, their leery whispers feed the hysteria
 Accusations, a vile covenant in service of Satan
 Forced to confess then condemned to die
 The vulgar Christians demanding a sacrifice
 To a God that never was and never will be... never will be!
 A plea for sanity falls upon deafened ears
 A call for judgement as their execution draws near
 Sentenced to death, all twenty and eight
 Hung by their necks, a shallow grave their final resting place
 ♪
 No salvation at the end of the hangman's noose
 No mercy for the coven of the cloven hoof
 He who refuses to confess to his crimes will meet a torturous end
 Pressed slowly to death under metal and stone, a dire fate for the condemned... for the condemned!
 ♪
 Malleus malficarum
 ♪
 That foul and ancient tome
 Hammer of the witches
 Lost souls forever roam
