Blaze up the witch The phrase "Blaze up the witch" is often associated with the historical persecution of witches during the early modern period. This phrase refers to the practice of burning witches at the stake as a means of punishment for their perceived involvement in witchcraft. Throughout history, countless women (and some men) were accused of being witches and faced brutal executions as a result. The belief in witchcraft was prevalent during this time, with many people attributing misfortune, illness, and other abnormal occurrences to the work of witches. These accused individuals were often social outcasts or held unconventional beliefs, making them easy targets for persecution. The act of burning witches at the stake was seen as a way to purify society and rid it of supposed evil.

I see your face in my mind and you are standing over me You smile inside my dream and every sadness floats away All of our mistakes are gone, no regrets, no broken dreams We are running through the flames on the witches night Will you die before you find your home. At first I was fuming that, as a music journalist, I was obligated to pause N-Dubz to listen to something I assumed would either make me sleepy or depressed, but actually this is alright isn t it.

Witches Night Lyrics
I see your face in my mind and you are standing over me
You smile inside my dream and every sadness floats away
All of our mistakes are gone, no regrets, no broken dreams
We are running through the flames on the witches night
Will you die before you find your home?
Will you die thinking you are alone?
Will you die, what will you leave behind?
Will you die believing all their lies?
Dreaming of a life, eternity is in a single moment
Of pure and perfect joy and we cry only perfect tears
I walk along the edge of the cliff I see where I will fall
Then I look down on myself on the witches night
Will you die before you find your home?
Will you die thinking you are alone?
Will you die, what will you leave behind?
Will you die believing all their lies?
What is there to die for?
Why choose to die?
Choose a perfect moment
Make this moment our whole life
You′re always searching for something new
All I want is to be here with you
I will only tell you what is true
All I want is to be here with you
To be here with you
Here in this moment
Here in this moment
Here in this moment
We could now choose
The place and the day
We could find our path
We could find our way
No doubt, no fear
That moment we find
We keep in our heart
We keep for all time
Will you die before you find your home?
Will you die thinking you are alone?
Will you die, what will you leave behind?
Will you die believing all their lies?
