I Burn At The Stake Lyrics - Singles - Darkwoods My Betrothed

I wake up in shivers of cold 

On a chilly sunny morning of May 

My eyes try to catch up with what is going on 

They only recall the nights which in dungeons I laid 

Chanting in a tongue unknown fills my ears 

Odour of incenses...warmth of torchfires 

Men wearing black hooded robes are closing me 

Golden crosses glow as they light my pyre 

"In the name of the holy trinity 

We purify thy soul with these flames 

And baptize you..." 

"Never! You can burn me, bastards 

But you can never take my faith 

I spit on your cross and curse you 

In the name of the spirits of my fathers!" 

"We cursed you servants of the foreign god 

Despisable betrayers of your people 

I will never ever accept your faith 

Rather I burn at the stake!"
