Death By Fire - Earth Opera[00:00:00]

I decree that her death be by rumor the skull gleamed[00:00:07]

And creaking sat back in it's chair[00:00:14]

In agreement the room full of white teeth all clicked[00:00:22]

And they said we must do what is fair[00:00:30]

While the priests prepared hammers and nails[00:00:36]

And the carpenters and planed[00:00:43]

The nuns nodded knowing to sentence a sinner[00:00:52]

Is justice and law of the same[00:00:59]

In the cobblestone streets of the village[00:01:24]

The hawkers and mongers are wagging their tongues[00:01:31]

With sly smiles of insinuation they watch her[00:01:41]

And talk of the ensuing fun[00:01:49]

Her beauty defilement[00:01:58]

She will now pay for this crime of lust[00:02:02]

The monks in the towers are pealing the bells[00:02:13]

To remind the people that they must[00:02:21]

And the carrion crows are arriving in droves[00:02:45]

As the sun sets to pick the bones clean[00:02:53]

And the clowns stand around and they stare at the ground[00:03:04]

And they secretly weep at the scene[00:03:12]

In the rectory the priest laughs[00:03:20]

And let's the wine drip down his vest[00:03:23]

He calls and caresses his lover who laughs[00:03:33]

As he wipes his mouth on his chest[00:03:40]

The widows and virgins at watch in the window[00:05:24]

As sinners are purged down bellow[00:05:33]

No willows will weep for her silence of ashes[00:05:42]

Will sleep in the new-fallen snow[00:05:51]
