Burn, Witches, Burn Lyrics - Singles - Darkwoods My Betrothed

"He must be the root of all this misery 

The ladies, whores, a Satan's tool to send us to eternity 

Ring, brothers, ring the bells and bring the torches 

Let us tie them up to the stake - burn, witches, burn" 

Finally the men of the town could point the guilt to someone 

Of course it had to be the stranger 

Following their wives at night they had found the orgies 

Rituals to bring forth the powers of Hell 

"How could you our beloved wives 

Grant your bodies to be used to do evil 

On him we know no mercy, nor can we give you any 

Follow us to the hills - burn, witches, burn" 

First they surrounded the guest house where the preacher 

Was sleeping off the exertions of the night 

A cross-shaped pole they drove through his black heart 

Sending him to join his master in the pits of Hell 

The few women still considered faithful 

Were told to stay at home 

While the others were being marched to the hills 

These women gathered... 

The guilty women of the town were taken to the hills 

Where huge bonfires were standing 

Tied up to the stakes they were - naked to face the god 

In tears they cried: "We were possessed!" 

"In the name of the holy trinity 

Be purified by these flames 

We pray for your souls on your way to damnation 

For all the evil you have done - burn, witches, burn"
