Lyrics
Witch-Hunt
Words and Music Michael Sean Harris
Well you've made a fool of me for the very last time
now it's time that you must pay.
Fashioned me a hanging tree with a little steppin' stool
to help you on your way.
I tied the knot with you in mind
it's you who'll be strung up this time.
Oh my dear, now don't you run
don't think you can outrun this bloodhound's gun.
Cast your spells, done had your fun
we'll read some bones before the dawning's come.
You can call your spirits of the night
I'll wager you I'll win this fight.
I cannot be threatened
I cannot be moved
Never sever ancestry
I will see your face
Now I have you face to face
and still you wear a strange contorted grin.
Still you don't believe your fate
you try to summon some dark strength within.
I prayed we'd all take a different course
(but) it seems we can't control this force {rep}
