Rape revenge murder ballad

lyrics

Wake up and Burn

I lay there soaking in your treason
And you drowned me without a word
Every sin will have its season
And every season has its turn

It’s coming winter with the dawning
And I have mourned the harvest moon
I can hear the rooster crowing
Calling “Wake up- wake up and burn!”

I hope I never see your eyes again
Without two quarters on the lids
You will never see me cry again
And I will never let you win

It’s coming lighter with the dawning
And I know where you slept last night
I’ve got a match and kerosene calling
And I know how to put things right

I see the dawn over the mountain
And all the embers burning down
Everyone they saw the flames
They heard your shouts all over town

And see how no one came to help you
Cause everyone knew what you done
They heard you laughin’ drinkin’ whiskey
Braggin’ that you had your fun

I hope you know that I ain’t sorry
I lived to put you in your grave
I sent you right where you belong
And now the devil knows your name

I know I’ll never see your eyes again
Without two quarters on the lids
You will never see me cry again
And I will never let you win

The devil knows your name

The music splashes through saucy guitar cabaret fiascos, circus tales, and murder revenge ballads. Listen for mature themes with a fearless grin and a knowing wink. A naughty pleasure, but not a guilty one- ... more
