[Verse 1]
Paranoia, their leery whispers feed the hysteria
Accusations, a vile covenant in service to Satan
Forced to confess then condemned to die
The vulgar Christians demanding a sacrifice
To a God that never was and never will be
Never will be
[Chorus]
A plea for sanity falls upon deafened ears
A call for judgement as their execution draws near
Sentenced to death, all twenty and eight
Hung by their necks, a shallow grave their final resting place
[Verse 2]
No salvation at the end of the hangman's noose
No mercy for the coven of the cloven hoof
He who refuses to confess to his crimes will meet a torturous end
Pressed slowly to death under metal and stone, a dire fate for the condemned
For the condemned
[Chorus]
A plea for sanity falls upon deafened ears
A call for judgement as their execution draws near
Sentenced to death, all twenty and eight
Hung by their necks, a shallow grave their final resting place
[Bridge]
Malleus maleficarum
That foul and ancient tome
Hammer of the witches
Lost souls forever roam
