Catch a fire and burn all the misery
Foul fingers spin my mentality
Anger on the rise as the flames grow higher
Took on the smoke of the funeral pyre, backfire

Killing all we've learned
History will burn, burn it

Smile as it burns to the ground
The perfect don't want you around
Question yourself, you may learn
Who's the next witch you must burn?
You must burn

In the name of hell, it's been to conspire
Black figures loom as a dark desire
Inquisition your derailment
Tied to the stake, torching heresy, flame out

Killing all we've learned
History will burn, burn it

Smile as it burns to the ground
The perfect don't want you around
Question yourself, you may learn
You are the witch you must burn
You must burn

In the heat of the night
And the motion, light, feed the appetite
In the heat of the night
And the motion, light, feed the appetite

Smile as it burns to the ground
The perfect don't want you around
Question yourself, you may learn
You are the witch you must burn
You must burn

You must burn
You must burn
You must burn
