About

The song was written about a friend of the band who was targeted and defamed. This “witchhunt”, similar to the witchhunts in Salem, Massachusetts during the 1690s, shows how rumors and gossip can hurt the reputation and life of an individual.

Salem (Burn the Witch) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Where does your misfortune grow?
From a humble house
With a cross burning slow
You fear she will challenge your throne
You dig the dirt
And it's selling like gold

[Bridge]
10 fingers, 10 toes point
But not a damn one back at you
It's your fault, you fall apart
The problem is in you

[Chorus]
Burn the witch
Or stone and rope to bind her soul
(Down, down, down)
Sink or swim
And watch the truth drown below
(Down, down, down)

[Verse 2]
You search the hills
Swift and true
Look outside yourself
For it cannot be you
The town gathers and slander ensues
Not long 'til she's cursed
Not long 'til she's through

[Bridge 2]
You've done the work of a saint
With the devil's hand
With cauldron gossip you pray
To restore this land

Holy and dead
Holy and dead
Remember the plank?
You've got a tree instead

[Chorus]
Burn the witch
Or stone and rope to bind her soul
(Down, down, down)
Sink or swim
And watch the truth drown below
(Down, down, down)

Burn the witch!
Ha ha ha!
Burn the witch!
Ha ha ha!

[Verse 3]
This will all be over soon
She's melting through
(She's melting through)
But your
Your dark clouds still remain
So grab another one without a name
(Without a name)

[Chorus]
Burn the witch
Or stone and rope to bind her soul
(Down, down, down)
Sink or swim
And watch the truth drown below
Burn the witch
Or stone and rope to bind her soul
(Down, down, down)
Sink or swim
(Yeah!)

Burn the witch!
Ha ha ha!
Burn the witch!
Ha ha ha!
Burn!

[Outro]
(Hail, hail, the witch is dead)
(The witch, old witch)
(The wicked witch)
(Hail, hail, the wicked witch is dead)
(Hail, hail, the witch is dead)
(The witch, old witch)
(The wicked witch)
(Hail, hail, the wicked witch is dead)
