The Curse Of The Witch Lyrics

A Day in August Mina Rice was
Picking Belladonnas as she
Heard the Cries of a Crowd coming
Then she knew her Time had come
She didn’t even try to run
‘Cause she knew it was too late
No matter what they would do
The Dark was sure to make them pay

Soon they found her and stopped shouting
A new Victim for their Trials
Was it her Fault that the Clayton
Family’s Child died of Fever?
Yes, it was, but nobody knew
Nor did anybody care
But they surely found their Scapegoat
Mina Rice was dragged away in Chains

You could not see on her Face that
Her Life had come to an End
She wept no Tears, what a strange Girl
Covered in Beauty yet so mysterious
From her Cell you soon could hear her
Sing her lonely Songs of Twilight
A Fire should light up the Landscape
And so she was dragged to the Stake to burn… Dragged to the Stake there to burn in the Moonlight
Satan’s Disciple to die on this Night
A Crowd of (Frightened) Cowards screaming out against
her
“Let the Devil burn your Soul in Hell for all Eternity!
…
Eternity… Eternity… Eternity…”

The Stake caught Fire and lit up the dark Night
And knowing that someone saw it from the other Side
Her once purple Eyes turned as black as a Raven
She screamed out a Curse that should haunt them in all
Eternity…
Eternity… Eternity… Eternally!

(And the Witch spoke:)
“Oh, who are you – Mere Mortals and Disciples of God!
Is it not known to you who my Father is?
I shall come back bringing with me the Legions of Hell
And haunt each and everyone of you till there is no one
left!”

And so she did
