《Death By Fire》歌词

[00:00:00] Death By Fire - Earth Opera

[00:00:07] I decree that her death be by rumor the skull gleamed

[00:00:14] And creaking sat back in it's chair

[00:00:22] In agreement the room full of white teeth all clicked

[00:00:30] And they said we must do what is fair

[00:00:36] While the priests prepared hammers and nails

[00:00:43] And the carpenters and planed

[00:00:52] The nuns nodded knowing to sentence a sinner

[00:00:59] Is justice and law of the same

[00:01:24] In the cobblestone streets of the village

[00:01:31] The hawkers and mongers are wagging their tongues

[00:01:41] With sly smiles of insinuation they watch her

[00:01:49] And talk of the ensuing fun

[00:01:58] Her beauty defilement

[00:02:02] She will now pay for this crime of lust

[00:02:13] The monks in the towers are pealing the bells

[00:02:21] To remind the people that they must

[00:02:45] And the carrion crows are arriving in droves

[00:02:53] As the sun sets to pick the bones clean

[00:03:04] And the clowns stand around and they stare at the ground

[00:03:12] And they secretly weep at the scene

[00:03:20] In the rectory the priest laughs

[00:03:23] And let's the wine drip down his vest

[00:03:33] He calls and caresses his lover who laughs

[00:03:40] As he wipes his mouth on his chest

[00:05:24] The widows and virgins at watch in the window

[00:05:33] As sinners are purged down bellow

[00:05:42] No willows will weep for her silence of ashes

[00:05:51] Will sleep in the new-fallen snow
