I should drown away, that should end my horror horror
Perhaps burn in flames, don't forget the torture, torture
Nothing too humane, I won't have a single mourner
All because I've stained, your deity's name

(x2)
Will your God keep you safe?
Or will he just be counting your grave?

You can run and hide, but keep your caskets aside
You can plead and pray, but it's the witches night

I should rot away, buried six feet under under
Ashes at the stake, and my flesh all torn asunder
See you at my wake, hang me into my last slumber
Your final mistake, crashing down like thunder thunder

(x2)
Will your God keep you safe?
Or will he just be counting your grave?

(La La La)

You can run and hide, but keep your caskets aside
You can plead and pray, but it's the witches night
