For Those Who Died Lyrics - Singles - Sabbat

Our tounges 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 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, 

Though the crimes they 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. 

Abused my broken body is cleansed 

By righteous flame, 

Their God a 'God of Mercy' 

Yet in whose name I'm 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.
