Lyrics:
In others' mouths are scraping of rocks
Who walks a rope, run along the ground
Into the basket, into the basket
Withered, the sky is fatted with ice
Come as the earth grows richer off blood
The doe is in season, the doe is in season

[Chorus]
We pull our teeth out, laying down in easy places
Thicken the air with talk but cover our eyes up with our hands
They're shooting the wolves from
Helicopters- can you believe that?
Out in the wide world, the wildest ones are vanishing quickly
But it won't be the witches that are burning this time!
And it won't be the witches that are burning this time!
And it won't be the witches that are burning this time!

Out in the wood, a passing of hours
In the jailhouse of limb, a passing of years
Into the casket, into the casket
I will not crouch, polluted with law
No traitor to witch, no traitor to wolf
Judas Iscariot, Judas Iscariot!

[Chorus]
We pull our teeth out, laying down in easy places
Thicken the air with talk but cover our eyes up with our hands
They're shooting the wolves from
Helicopters- can you believe that?
Out in the wide world, the wildest ones are vanishing quickly
But it won't be the witches that are burning this time!
And it won't be the witches that are burning this time!
And it won't be the witches that are burning this time!

Now the white wool has twisted 'round the land
The cowering altar and matricide born
Stones, they are screaming, stones, they are screaming
I call them men, but they are not men!
Faces like blood rags, yet dressed to the fines
Chariots surround us, chariots surround us

[Chorus]
We pull our teeth out, laying down in easy places
Thicken the air with talk but cover our eyes up with our hands
They're shooting the wolves from
Helicopters- can you believe that?
Out in the wide world, the wildest ones are vanishing quickly
And it won't be the witches that are burning this time!
