Buried in a Swamp Lyrics


Bury not the cadaver in the churchyard

Plunge it into an abysmal bog hole

There it shall slumber

Unseen, bloodless, withering

Between gnarled trees

(And) We shall dread never, ever again

At the age of ten she was baptized

Secrets were revealed to her

Now she's tortured, hanged, abused

In this filthy land, buried

The beast shall never return

Nor feel the morning sun

Drowned, the way it's supposed to be

At the age of ten she was baptized

Secrets were revealed to her

Now she's tortured, hanged, abused

In this swamp, buried

The beast shall not return

Nor see the sunrise again

Drowned, like it was meant to be

High altar hidden in the woods

Lies had filled her heart

Sacrificing her own fluids

To a antlered god, banished by Christ

Marks on her skin deceived her

To the witchhunter, blinded by greed

"Silence! I am your God now! Die, witch, die!"
