Molly can't keep secrets 
So they burned her at the stake
Cause I will lie like a hunting drunk 
Saw them coming in the flames 

I wove them a pretty story 
Full of shock and innocence 
I tied the noose around her neck 
With words so calm and tense 

I couldn't keep away that day 
Saw them coming in the flames 
My face a mask of vengeance 
And holy pious rage 
They were greedy, watching 
A croud of fear and hate 
And I curse their silent, spiteful god 
And his every twisted page 
And walk away 
Just walk away 

I talk to her sometimes at night 
The ghost of her mistake 
She keeps me company with sighs 
And I sing her bitter lullabies 
Because her guilt has made me stay
She can't walk away 
She can't walk away 
And I can't walk away 

I couldn't keep away that day
To play the saint, we were the stars 
My eyes held hers before she left 
In my chest, a broken heart 
They were greedy, watching 
A crowd of lust and hate 
And I curse their spiteful silent god 
And his every twisted page 
And walk away 
Just walk away
