The Witch
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Forgive us our mistake
She was a creature of the land
Leading her armies by the hand
Kings of her country looked around
Who was the witch who took the town
Burn the witch
Burn her at the stake
Burn the witch
Burn her at the stake
Thousands were led to victory
Though everyone said it was heresy
People rebelled from tyranny
Hundreds decried in ecstasy
Burn the witch
Burn her at the stake
Burn the witch
Burn her at the stake
We burned her at the stake
Forgive us our mistake
