Witch Hunt

Bolts of lightning, out of the blue

Without forewarning, the heat is on you

Watch what you say, the phone maybe tapped

Under heavy surveillance, looks like you're trapped

Under investigation, whether guilty or not

Without your own doing, you're part of the plot

Trying to hide, going underground

Just a matter of time until you will be found

Witch hunt, guilty by association

Witch hunt, systematic defamation

Witch hunt, process of elimination

Witch hunt, demonized and sacrificed

The noose is tightening, there's no return

Moral cleansing, free thinking must burn

This is serious, your face in the mud

The end of the story is written in blood

Freeze, down on your knees, beaten and bound

Tarred and feathered, they parade you around

The media is feasting, your face on the news

It's a feeding frenzy, a mob on the loose

Witch hunt, guilty by association

Witch hunt, systematic defamation

Witch hunt, process of elimination

Witch hunt, demonized and sacrificed

Witch hunt, guilty by association

Witch hunt, merciless interrogation

Witch hunt, ill-reputed executed

Witch hunt, witch hunt, burn that witch

You've always been different, you've spoken your mind

Set yourself apart, now they hate your kind

A foreign element, the unknown factor

An alien component, the Hannibal Lecter

It doesn't matter what you say or do

There is no justice, no future for you

Because you're the scapegoat, you are to blame

This is your life, 15 minutes of shame

Witch hunt, guilty by association

Witch hunt, systematic defamation

Witch hunt, process of elimination

Witch hunt, demonized and sacrificed

Witch hunt, guilty by association

Witch hunt, methodical eradication

Witch hunt, crucified by morning light

Witch hunt, witch hunt, burn that witch

It doesn't matter what you say or do

There is no justice, no future for you

Because you're the scapegoat, you are to blame

This is your life, 15 minutes of shame
