|
Dark middleagess centuries of pain
|
The appearance of the inquisitions
|
Religion turned out to be insane
|
In these times of witch prosecutions
|
|
Tortured till confession
|
Await the execution
|
Moaning and suffering
|
Tormented till death on the rack
|
|
Hundreds of them were sentenced
|
for perpetraiting heresy
|
Desperately begging for mercy
|
But death was only guarantee
|
|
Intense excruciation
|
Unmerciful cremation
|
Their smouldering bodies
|
and charred bones are left on the stake
|
|
The question of the interrogators
|
Extorted the false confessions
|
Broken upon the will they ended
|
Without even knowing the accusation
|
|
Limbs chopped off, viscera torn out
|
Mutilated venereal organs
|
Death in the name of the church
|
Decapitated or quartered
|
|
Evil exorcized
|
Purified flesh
|
Saved by the stake
|
Reduced to ashes
|
