[Verse 1]

I learned the lord is my master

Though his name I no more chant

I removed my silver crucifix

Harken not the preacher's rant

My only Bible has been burned

That was the last time I kneeled

Nothing in church I ever learned

To my selfish urge I'd yield

[Refrain]

I'm traitorous

I'm treasonous

[Verse 2]

Sworn allegiance I desert

To sin and lust I convert

My unbelief prevaricates

The abode of hell my soul awaits

[Chorus]

I burn

Ooh, they feed me flames

At the stake I taste the merciless fire

So I burn

Ooh, but the devil knows

I shall rise renewed from ashes of my death

[Verse 3]

I was throbbing in my desire

Holy doctrines I no more knew

When I was praying at the altar

Words all seemed too few

Tempted to sell my soul

My mind corrupted with vanity

Obsessed to reach my goal

Enticed beyond gates of insanity

[Refrain]

I'm traitorous

I'm treasonous

[Verse 4]

Perverse intent in my mind

High on deceit and what I can blind

Heresy is my guilty creed

Perjury, engulfed in greed

[Chorus]

I burn

Ooh, they feed me flames

At the stake I taste the merciless fire

So I burn

Ooh, but the devil knows

I shall rise renewed from ashes of my death

[Guitar Solo]

[Refrain]

I'm traitorous

I'm treasonous

[Chorus]

I burn

Ooh, they feed me flames

At the stake I taste the merciless fire

So I burn

Ooh, but the devil knows

I shall rise renewed from ashes of my death

[Outro]

Burn!
