Dedicated to all the wrongly convicted victims of the 1691 Salem witch trials

lyrics

They’ve convinced themselves that they’ve found me out
The teachings in this town has started a drought
In the minds of people I once claimed to know
The purest of rain couldn’t wash away the fear that’s grown

Now I’ve been put on display
On this twisted and demented stage

I’ve done everything that I was taught to do young
But what did it bring?
The opportunities are gone
The opportunist in me is gone

The hands that pull my strings has lost it’s grip
And now these brittle bones are all I’m standing with

My body shook and sweat when I heard the jury’s decision
My ears received words, but my heart heard none
(what I have done?)
I turn around and see
(Have I earned this?)
Everyone yell at me: “She’s a witch”

I’ve done everything that I was taught to do young
But what did it bring?
The opportunities are gone
The opportunist in me is gone

My heart pumps tar as I call on whose will I bid
My eyes turn pitch black, but I’ve never seen so clearly
We dance around the fire as you all burn

I’ve done everything that I was taught to do young
But what did it bring?
The opportunities are gone
The opportunist in me is gone
