What dastardly deeds men do Religion, a crux delivering scars They are coming The peasants surround, they have come to take my life With a holy resolve, they have come to rape my wife Say I'm in league with the devil, a perverter of faith Call me a deceiver, cheater, a non-believer The trial will seal my fate Bound and gagged, the trial begins in haste A circle is made, the men of cloth begin to debate Say I'm in league with the devil, a threat to their control Call me a deceiver, cheater, a non-believer Only fire can cleanse the soul As flames ignite, they will take our life, as flames ignite I beg, I plea, he has never hurt anyone, nor me A man of science, seeker of truth, with integrity My love, my dear, they wont listen to me I will remember what you shown, watch the stars in secrecy I am bound, as I scream my only pleas Fire surrounds, as the flames reach my knees I can't distinguish reality, I can't stop the pain I am choking, smoking, the crowd is poking As the flames sears through my brain
