Salem’s Secret

They taught you fear of shadows deep

Of whispers riding on the breeze

They showed you hags with souls to reap

And twisted takes to ill appease

 

You learned to dread the midnight dance 

The cauldrons brew 

The judging glance 

Of those who watched the embers glow

 

For it was not the accused one\'s plea

Nor the spells they wove in secret nights

That brought the gallows twisted tree

 And snuffed out innocent fridge lights 

 

Fear those who piled the pyre high

Who claimed God\'s word with burning breath 

Their righteous rage, a hollow cry

They were the architects of death

 

So tremble not for those 

Who met a fiery doom

But fear the wicked souls 

Who sealed them in a tomb
