Charity Absurd Lyrics - Haggard

The murmur grows - until they rage 

It is not a scenery 

At this market-place in middle-ages 

Somebody - in the crowd - 

Speaks a prayer 

Hundred burning torches rise 

In their light appears the silhouette 

Of a mighty Funeral pile 

Headling with some unknown herbs 

- Rising suspicion - 

"Death" - they say - 

"is what she deserves!" 

- An innocent victim - 

"Instruments of torture 

will tell us the truth!" 

And it feels like 

Oooohhh... 

"I'm representing the church 

Somebody said, in you might lurk 

Things - still not seen by human eyes 

Is is dark magic, you are practicing?" 

After there are no tears left 

And they thought, they'd feaced the fact 

"Nothing is as it should be 

You're accused of witchery!" 

"If there is a creator 

If there is a god. 

You will pay for all the dead 

There's punishment above! 

And somebody outside 

this chamber of horror 

Knows my fear, knows my sorrow 

YOU preach, how could I learn? 

'cause in this faith is 

CHARITY ABSURD!" 

After this words wer spoken 

The cowd wants to see her die 

The way to the confessor 

Will it be the last one in her life? 

The murmur grows - until they rage 

And somebody speaks a prayer 

A prayer...
