Lyrics

    burn the witches, burn the witches, don't take time to sew your stitches
    burn the witches, burn the witches
    good is the thing that you favor, evil is your sour flavor
    you cannot sedate all the things you hate
    burn the bridges, burn the bridges, don't take time to sew your stitches
    burn the bridges, burn the bridges
    good is the thing that you favor, evil is your sour flavor
    I don't need your hate, I decide my fate
    you cannot sedate, all the things you hate
