lyrics

At 8 in the morning
they opened her cell
Thousands had come
To see her put to death
They dragged her out
Dressed her in white clothes
A hat adorned with flames
A black cross preceded her

The Court of the Inquisition
Were waiting in a convent
Placed on display before the crowd
They forced her into a cage

From morning to afternoon
They read all her “crimes”
Rebellious to the end
She hurled insults and “blasphemies”



The inevitable sentence
Was finally passed down
Maria would be burned alive
In front of the whole town

In her final moments
Maria broke down
She asked for a confessor
To repent of her sins

So on a street corner
For three hours time
She told them what they needed
To keep from burning her alive

They strangled her to death
To save her the pain of fire
Then hung her on a stake
The flames filled the sky
