As Flames Ignite Lyrics


What dastardly deeds men do

Religion, a crux delivering scars

They are coming

The peasants surround, they have come to take my life

With a holy resolve, they have come to rape my wife

Say I'm in league with the devil, a perverter of faith

Call me a deceiver, cheater, a non-believer

The trial will seal my fate

[whispers of witch]

Bound and gagged, the trial begins in haste

A circle is made, the men of cloth begin to debate

Say I'm in league with the devil, a threat to their control

Call me a deceiver, cheater, a non-believer

Only fire can cleanse the soul

As flames ignite, they will take our life, as flames ignite

I beg, I plea, he has never hurt anyone, nor me

A man of science, seeker of truth, with integrity

My love, my dear, they wont listen to me,

I will remember what you shown, watch the stars in secrecy

I am bound, as I scream my only pleas,

Fire surrounds, as the flames reach my knees,

I can't distinguish reality, I can't stop the pain,

I am choking, smoking, the crowd is poking,

As the flames sears through my brain
