Witches Burning

What does a holocaust cost?
What does a goodbye buy?
Strange that you ask me now
A tooth for a tooth and an eye for an eye
Yes that's how
And you illiquidate your holdings
So you can pay the piper
And the prophecy's unfolding
And you must decipher

Been you were recently victimized by a 90s band
You will sky rise in filth in the skies
It was all part of the plan

We backed the wrong horse because we're still learning
It couldn't be worse than the sounds of witches burning
But baby we could try

The reason nihilism comes into play
As we walk along eggshells
Just as we throw all our trash away
'Cause it smells
And tons of radon in the basement
Now it lives inside my bones
Learning the ways of Final Placement
And their sweet guitar tones

Needles and pins crawling in my skin
As the counting down's about to begin
Knives and forks stuck in my eyes
As you read your words to the wise

Saturn brings me down when it's returning
Nothing like the sounds of witches burning
When the church bells ring, there's no discerning
The last words that come ring from witches burning
