Burnt At The Stake

A shackled defendant confesses her ways,
As the pure look on in dismay.
“She must be freed from the covenant’s grasp,
A child, towards evil has strayed.’’
The sun goes down over gallows hill,
As dusk pours over the land.
A judgement is made, pointing up to the pyre.
Where, convicted, the guilty shall stand.
A crowd gathers by, the condemned to be tied,
Upright, overlooking the town.
One diamond tear is all that she cries,
So gently and absent of sound.
Darkness descends, the void and the stars,
A cold whisper flicks through the air.
The frozen ground glows under the moon,
As silence replaces despair.
Burn!
Rid her of the evil one
Guide her back to purity
Learn the error of her ways
Cused blood evaporating
Cleansing her of heresy
Suffocating crematory
Screaming pain now fills the air
From this path you’re separated
Let this sentence show to all
The craft is never tolerated
Send the evil back to hell
Let her burn!
The embers glide up, flicker and glow,
Ashen bodies crumble below.
The cruellest of fates for an unproven crime,
Unqualified, the lawmen bestow.
An unusual fog descends from the trees,
With a whisper heard in the breeze -
“Each person who stands here as witness tonight,
Shall succumb to a fatal disease”.

Death, breathing down your neck
Here to take your soul
To its resting place
But first, it must become one
With the frozen air
A sentence handed down
From which you can’t return
Hear the church bell signal midnight
From the darkness of your cell
The freezing stone burns your skin
As you can hear the final knell
The cell door opens you know it’s time
Your ankles tied they drag you through
The frozen grass into a tomb
The world goes dark, you breath in hard
Awaken, restrained sacrifice
The blades run down your skin in symmetry
Your blood like ice
The strips of flesh pulled from your body
Flayed for the pleasure of their god.
The disease of astonishment
A curse on the covenant
Removed by a sacrifice
Of only the purest blood.
The faintest breath you’re still alive
Hoping that the end will come soon
As your body’s deconstructed
Pieces stored for later use
The final sound your mind percieves
Is the pouring of the salt
The burning pain of dessication.
The world goes dark you breathe no more
Death is here to take your hand
Your body parts are seperated
You can never be at rest
Torment those who took your skin
Seeking vengeance for their sin
Guide their souls into the darkness
From which, they can’t return.

Now, the innocent times have gone
Death and screams replacing laughter
Earth resenting your existence
Execution the only cure.
Make a pact
With the night
Sinking, further
In to blood.
All heresy
Fall into belief
All blasphemy
All your thoughts are breeding
Make a pact
With the night
Sinking, further
In to blood.
Death’s voice is calling
Carried on the wind
Eternity awaits the damned
Dragged from the cells
Hanged from the neck
A heretic plague
No more.
