Our tongues 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 through 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 through 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 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
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 through 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
2. Sodomy and Lust
Behind the scenes of destiny
I adore you in this song for me
Call me within your holy house to dwell
Let me raise for myself in spell
Voluptuously dancing daughters of the night sky
Sing the rapturous love song with high
Let your sweet scented juice run
Waste away under the lashes of my whip
Bath in sin
Sadistic souls
Break their crust
Sodomy and lust
Carnal desire runs through my veins
Whipping boys and scapegoats cry in pain
Psychopathic terror during their sleep
My power asks why, my power is weak
Spineless bundles of my excess
Expurse of innocence and helplessness
In the perfumes of my secret orison
Fresh blood of children drops down on me
Bath in sin
Sadistic souls
Break their crust
Sodomy and lust
Madness, crime, disgrace, ptomaine
Excrements, contempt, violence, kill
Ordeals if a thousand deads congealed in gloom
Strike hard and deep, to hell with them master
Mighty prophet's stature shall surpass the stars
The passion is the smell of cremation
I spit on your crapulous creed curse them!
Sucking your giveth delight and bright glory
Strive ever to be more joyous to the death
Don't fear any god will deny you for this
Bath in sin
Sadistic souls
Break Their crust
Sodomy and lust
