Battery – The Keep lyrics

Cold winds push against her skin
Raising scream and freezing gaze
Years of the cathedral stone
Crashing to the ground

Reflections from the church's windows
Flicker out into the night
A single hope escapes the keep
Formless praying left unbound

Only look back if you can
Ears of burning secrets lying
Searching out with stained glass eyes
Looking back she called the shadow
Thinking it would follow [follow her]

Left inside the ivy walls
A lifeless body turned away
Outside the trees were lined with silver
But only in the dying

Only look back if you can

Crying out her neck in pain
The fragile wings were torn away
She left her ruin in the keep
The crucified in ashes

Gravel rips with footsteps passing
Winding out through space unseen
Clouds of light pour forth from lips
Purple in the running
