Witch Hunter Lyrics


Off ride the horsemen into the night

Looking to capture the cause of this blight

Infesting the country, permeating the land

Presence of evil is felt by every man

In this year of our Lord, 1692

Fear of the devil has seized them through and through

Witchfinder general orders the men

With sword and fire to  drive them from their den

Disperse the coven, magic must cease

Brandish the hammer, restore the peace

Foulest creatures of Satan’s design

They all deserve to die

Distrust thy neighbor and sound the village bell

Witchcraft hides deeper than the eye can tell

Even thy own wife could be a fiend of hell

If you look close enough you’ll see her cast her spells

So watch for the shadows and stay inside at night

Don’t fall for hexes and see through their disguise

Somewhere amongst us the coven convenes

Put an end to their sabbath and their evil schemes

Disperse the coven, magic must cease

Brandish the hammer to restore the peace

Passing the judgment, guilty of sin

Let the trials begin

Judged in the courtroom with terror on their breath

Thirty found guilty, twenty put to death

Nineteen by hanging, one more crushed by rocks

Puritan magistrates thinning out the flock of

Innocent lives now purged from the earth

Condemned by the masses and sentenced by the church

Miscarried justice can never be undone

Black page in history for years and years to come

Disperse the coven, magic must cease

Brandish the hammer to restore the peace

Foulest creatures of Satan’s design

They all deserve to die

Disperse the coven, the magic must cease

Brandish the hammer to restore the peace

Foulest creatures of Satan’s design

They all deserve to die
