The Guillotine - Witchery

One hour left to live one hour 'til I die

I should be walking free yet still here I now lie

Receive the blessing of the blade

The guillotine

Misjudged and sentenced for a crime I did not do

Accused of witchcraft and for raping one

Or two

Receive the blessing of the blade

The guillotine

The masses cheer I climb the stairs

I hope for mercy but salvation’s nowhere near

Just one word from being forced to join the headless dead

Strapped into place with a basket at my head

I hear the whisper now of the blade

Slicing the air

Receive the blessing of the blade

The guillotine
