Burning Times Lyrics - Inkubus Sukkubus

Forget not the days of old 

And recall the stories told 

Of the burnings and the screams 

Do they ever haunt your dreams? 

There was a time when freedom died 

It was an age of genocide 

The Inquisition at the door 

The Church of Rome in a holy war 

They broke children on the wheel 

In the madness of their zeal 

In the shadow of their wake 

The innocent burning at the stake 

[chorus] 

Children resist a return to the burning times 

People be wise to the power of their lies 

Be not fooled as those who were fooled before 

Children, oh children, be free, be wild 

They came to bring the 'good news' 

To burn witches, pagans, Jews 

Said they were the Shepherd's sheep 

Whipped old women through the streets 

Then the turning of the tide 

From the truth they could not hide 

Now the darkest age has passed 

The Goddess has returned at last! 

2x[chorus]
