For thousands of years
We've ruled this land with an iron fist and calloused hands
But now a shadow looms over our perfect breed
Born from the tears and blood of a slave
With invisible chains
She screamed and stomped
As we got drunk with lust
Laughing at her shock
Draining to the last drop
Until a lilac rain woke her up from a dreamful sleep
Breaking her ties
A spell is boiling inside
It's time to hunt the witch
Before she kills us all
It's time to hunt the witch
Until her voice is torn
It's time to burn the witch
'Cause she believes we're wrong
It's time to burn the witch and let her corpse hang on
With grace and hex
She'll trick our children into fight against their own
It's how the tale's been told since our ancestors' dawn
And you know it could be worse
Or not?
She doubts
We've won
It's time to hunt the witch
Before she kills us all
It's time to hunt the witch
Until her voice is torn
It's time to burn the witch
'Cause she believes we're wrong
It's time to burn the witch
and let her corpse hang on
So this is how it ends and this is how it feels
To stare into the face of death while fire licks my feet
On a pile of smoked bones and my sister's crisp flesh
That smell...
That smell...
I am seamstress
I am womb
I am queen and I am not
I am suffragette and Amazon who rides against all odds
With my hands tied to a pole
Now you look me in the eye
For every witch you burn another thousand more will rise!
It's time to hunt the witch
Before she kills us all
It's time to hunt the witch
Until her voice is torn
It's time to burn the witch
'Cause she believes we're wrong
It's time to burn the witch
And let her corpse hang on
Burn the witch!
(Before she kills us all...)
Burn the witch!
(Until her voice is torn...)
Burn the witch!
('Cause she believes we're wrong...)
Burn the witch!
And let her corpse hang on...
