Heretic

Heretic
Heretic, burn at the stake
Witch yeah, float like a log
[Verse 1]:
Wine from the blade

Heretic, burn at the cross
Witch, float like a log
[Verse 2]:
Flask over fire amongst cobwebs of cellars
Mixture that turns metal into gold
Bring life to the dying
Secret till the last words are told
[Verse 3]:
Accused and convicted
For nothing I suffer your fear
Nailed to a burning cross
Heretic, heretic
From life to death
You've been good
As for the past
Time will tell
