For Those Who Died (return To The Sabbat Mix) Lyrics - Cradle Of Filth

"You stand before this court, accused of heresy and witch craft. How do you plead?" 

"Not guilty!" 

"Guilty!" 

Our tongues they could not silence with their malicious lies 

Their unforgotten violence, remember those who died 

And as my flesh is put to fire I hear their voices still 

Their unjust accusations demanding that I am killed 

"We shall show no mercy to heathen such as thee 

Who stand accused and have refused the Church's clemency 

Your wicked acts are endless through the crimes we cannot name 

Innocent or guilty proved, we'll burn you just the same" 

Burning, into the fire 

Burning, a funeral pyre 

Burning, into the fire 

Burning, a funeral pyre

This self-righteous inquisition is a plague upon our land 

as false as the confessions they force from shattered hands 

"We shall show no mercy to heathen such as thee 

Who stand accused and have refused the Church's clemency 

Your wicked acts are endless through the crimes we cannot name 

Innocent or guilty proved, we'll burn you just the same" 

Burning, into the fire 

Burning, a funeral pyre 

Burning, into the fire 

Burning, a funeral pyre 

Abused my broken body is cleansed by righteous flame, 

Their God a 'God of Mercy' yet in whose name I slain. 

My innocence the victim of their superstitious fears 

Religious persecution for the past three hundred years 

Preaching peace and mercy 'neath the shadow of the knife 

A papal reign of terror, slaughter in the name of Christ
