[Verse 1]
In the year 1486, the Malleus first appeared
Designed to kill all witchcraft and end the papal fears:
Prescribing tortures to kill the Black Arts;
And the Hammer struck hard

[Verse 2]
Malleus Maleficarum slaughtered and tortured
All those under suspicion, as the Inquisistion ordered -
Burning black hearts and innocents alike, killing the mad;

Both the Black and the White Arts -
But spirits override pain
For every one that the torture took, two were hid secure
And so the craft, yes, it endured

[Bridge]
Love and hate lived on in the face of fear
Hexenhammer's force died
And the real power became clear:
