Cradle of Filth
For Those Who Died (Return To The Sabbat Mix) 2002 |
You stand before this court accused of practicing witchcraft
How do you plead?
Not guilty! (not guilty not guilty not guilty...)
Guilty guilty guilty
Our tounges they could not silence
With their malicious lies
Their unforgotten violence
Remember those who died
And as my flesh is put to fire
I hear their voices still
Their unjust accusations
Demanding I am killed
'We shall show no mercy
To heathen such as thee
Who stand accused and have refused
The Church's clemency
Your wicked acts are endless
Though the crimes we cannot name
Innocent or guilty proved
We'll burn you just the same'
Burning!
Into the fire
Burning!
A funeral pyre
Burning!
Into the fire
Burning!
A funeral pyre
This self-righteous inquisition
Is a plague upon our land
As false as the confessions
They force from shattered hands
'We shall show no mercy
To heathen such as thee
Who stand accused and have refused
The Church's clemency
Your wicked acts are endless
Though the crimes we cannot name
Innocent or guilty proved
We'll burn you just the same'
Burning!
Into the fire
Burning!
A funeral pyre
Burning!
Into the fire
Burning!
A funeral pyre
Abused my broken body
Is cleansed by righteous flame
Their God a 'God of Mercy'
Yet in whose name I'm slain
My innocence the victim of their superstitious fears
Religious persecution for the past three hundred years
Preaching peace and mercy 'neath the shadow of the knife
A papal reign of terror slaughter in the name of Christ
Slaughter in the name of Christ
And as my flesh is put to fire
I hear their voices still
Their unjust accusations
Demanding I am killed
'We shall show no mercy
To heathen such as thee
Who stand accused and have refused
The Church's clemency
Your wicked acts are endless
Though the crimes we cannot name
Innocent or guilty proved
We'll burn you just the same'
Burning!
Into the fire
Burning!
A funeral pyre
Burning!
Into the fire
Burning!
A funeral pyre |
