Scapegoat

It was back in the 16th century
When enlightenment was still elementary
People lived with their superstition
Death was all around.

War and black death. War and black death.

And when the fruits would perish
Harvest was dried and withered
And then the children died
The pestilence, the plague.

War and black death. War and black death.

Madness ist everywhere, a real hysteria
Thousands would lose their lives
Burned by that mob alive.

She's just a scapegoat
(in darkness they will dwell)
Create a true world of hell.

'Cause the church overpowered superior
Ruled the people's minds with sheer terror
Found a scapegoat for real everything
That scared them in their lives.

War and black death. War and black death.

Scared by powers of nature
Ignorance would have made you
Fear those who knew 'bout healing
Far away from god.
