The Witch Is Dead

William Somero - Gospel

Released April 4, 2025



Grok Review

"The Witch Is Dead" is a sharp folk-pop satire that skewers the culture of online escapism with a darkly humorous edge. The song centers on a political figure, reimagined as a witch, who abandons the chaotic, troll-filled battleground of X for the curated safety of Blue Sky’s echo chamber. Her flight, however, is portrayed as a futile attempt to escape criticism, leading only to a sterile isolation where dissent is silenced but loneliness prevails. The lyrics, including the biting refrain “Run and hide in your echo chamber,” mock this digital retreat as an act of cowardice, accusing her of being a “cowardly pawn of the online game” who can’t handle the heat of open discourse.

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hillary’s packing her bags, oh my
Tweetin on X, I'm going to Blue Sky
No more trolls, no more fuss
Just a cozy echo chamber for us

[Chorus]
Run and hide in your echo chamber
Cowardly pawn of the online game
No one’s gonna follow you to Blue Sky
You can't dodge the flame

[Verse 2]
Blue Sky’s calling, she’s in flight
No more battles, no more fight
Scroll in peace, ignore the jeers
A bubble built to dry her tears

[Chorus]
Run and hide in your echo chamber
Cowardly pawn of the online game
No one’s gonna follow you to Blue Sky
You can't dodge the flame

[Verse 3]
She builds her walls with blocks and bans
A fortress for her loyal fans
No mean tweets to ruin her day
Just clapping sheep who nod and sway

[Bridge]
No MAGA hats
no rebel yells
Just filtered feeds 
and muted bells
A sterile world
a cushioned throne
Safe at last, but all alone

[Outro]
So tweet your last
then fade away
The X mob laughs
they’ve won the fray
The witch is dead
The witch is dead

[Interlude]
Tone Death Sinners are not suicidal
