Burning Angel Lyrics
Dark shadows from above
Ravens fly, obliterate the sun
"It's a sign of the devil.
He will come for his servant tonight"
These are dark times
Suspicious minds breed like rats
Guardians of corrupt morality
Spread their filthy lies
Am I to burn
I have not sinned!
Burnt at the stake.
Innocent blood that can never be wished clean
The flames of ignorance
Grow higher and higher
Licking my flesh - burning my soul
The raven laughing in the moon
These are dark times
Suspicious minds breed like rats.
Guardians of corrupt morality
Spread their filthy lies again...
Ravens fly, obliterate the sun
"It's a sign of the devil.
He will come for his servant tonight"
These are dark times
Suspicious minds breed like rats
Guardians of corrupt morality
Spread their filthy lies
I have not sinned!
Burnt at the stake.
Innocent blood that can never be wished clean
Grow higher and higher
Licking my flesh - burning my soul
The raven laughing in the moon
Suspicious minds breed like rats.
Guardians of corrupt morality
Spread their filthy lies again...

Wicked lyrics, we should embrace our carnal nature freely and laugh at the fire.

Well its obviously about witch burnings, the salem trials, etc... wouldnt that suck if a bunch of ravens flew by and they burned you for it? yes it would.

Awesome song with a killer guitar solo and great lyrics.
This is one of my all-time favorites. The guitar solo near the end just blew me away when i first heard it. Amazing stuff!

Pretty awesome song, one of my favourites from Arch Enemy. Seems like a song about witch burning, but it could be seen as a broader commentary on society. Namely how people feel a need to blame someone for mishaps and unfortunate occurrences rather than just accepting it and moving on. An innocents blood will be spilled (metaphorically, but in some circumstances perhaps literally), because people point fingers, spread lies... all with the vision that they are aiding society and protecting morality by finding someone to blame, and subsequently punish.
P.S: How awesome is the line "these are dark times, suspicious minds breed like rats" !!!
