Xyster - Inquisition lyrics

rate me

Hunter and hunted gasping for breath, the inquisitors closing in<br />

Crimes against church and crimes against crown are your deadly sins<br />

Surrounded by many, protected by few, you throw your weapons to the ground<br />

You feel like a fox at the end of a hunt, wishing that you were the hound<br />

<br />

[Chorus:]<br />

Pathetic and wounded on your knees, what can you say<br />

To the evil inquisitors of Auto de la Fe?<br />

<br />

Bound and gagged, roughly treated, taken to your cell<br />

Where body and mind are tortured in your private hell<br />

Waiting for your day of death, wishing it to arrive<br />

Who said there'd be Purgatory while you're still alive<br />

<br />

[Chorus]<br />

<br />

A thousand cuts shred your skin, writhing on the ground<br />

A tourniquet crushes your neck, eyes blood-swollen round<br />

Your brain explodes, death is here, not a moment soon<br />

Travel to your heretic master, Hell's piper calls your tune<br />

<br />

[Chorus]
