Burning Times Songtext
von Omen

In the year of our Lord 1484
They came with their picks and their clubs and their axes and swords
Pointing their fingers and casting their stones
When he sends up the wicked of soul
In league with the devil, accused of the crimes
Persecution and the burning times

Darkest days in all of history
Tried before council and forced to renounce their beliefs
Claimed to malefic beasts and blamed of heresy
They tortured and maimed, some burned and some hung from a tree

The rise of inquisitors, self-righteousness
To make all the witches confess
The Malleus Maleficarum recited
In the age known as the burning times


Seek them out
Hunt them down
Burn them all
To the ground
Kill the witch

Kill them all
It′s genocide
To watch them fall
This is the signs of the burning times
The flames they rise in these burning times
The burning times

The year of our Lord 1484
They came with their picks and their clubs, their axes and swords
The hammer of witches, the shipwreck of souls
Their ashes to ashes, their flesh in the coals
The death bell tolls

Darkest days in all of history
Tried before council and forced to renounce their beliefs

The rise of inquisitors, self-righteousness
To make all the witches confess
In league with the devil, accused of the crimes

In the age known as the burning times

The burning times
