Lyrics

[00:21.369] Her penultimate sighs
[00:22.939] Called softy on the kindling wind
[00:25.369] Her saintly eyes filling with tears, lifting with truth
[00:29.169] And then a golden flash like the onset of Heaven
[00:31.870] Leaving her screams breaking my heart
[00:34.739] And in the grip of fire
[00:37.390] I knew the death of love
[00:38.559]
[00:56.129] Where will you be when they tense for warfare?
[00:59.239]
[01:00.249] What will you see with your innocence there?
[01:03.599]
[01:04.549] Where will you be my darling?
[01:08.809] Where will you be when they tense for warfare?
[01:12.109]
[01:13.299] Where will you be when God is glorifying?
[01:16.669]
[01:18.190] There we will be between the dead and dying
[01:21.789] Where will you be my darling?
[01:25.658]
[01:26.219] Where will you be when God is glorifying?
[01:30.209]
[01:35.259] Prophecies and glory forge a massive disdain
[01:39.169]
[01:43.490] For lying passive in the shadows whilst the enemy reigns
[01:47.669]
[01:53.390] Devoted to the votive, holy standard above
[01:56.990]
[02:00.899] command 'By of the king of Heaven'
[02:02.929] Came the death of love
[02:07.958]
[02:23.700] will Where you be when they're vilifying?
[02:25.909]
[02:27.539] How will they see when the truth is blinding?
[02:30.920]
[02:31.789] Where will you be my darling?
[02:35.640]
[02:36.899] Where will you be when they're vilifying?
[02:39.399]
[02:40.589] Where will you be when the dark is rising?
[02:44.170]
[02:44.728] How will you keep from it's terrorizing?
[02:48.309]
[02:49.490] Where will you be my darling?
[02:52.799]
[02:53.359] Where will you be when the dark is rising?
[02:57.499]
[03:06.679] Burning was the sunset like a portent of doom
[03:10.890]
[03:14.510] On the saintly iron maiden as she fell from her wound
[03:19.899] But visions and ambition
[03:21.149] Never listened to submission
[03:23.289] And she was on a mission from the highest above
[03:27.978] To Lord upon the slaughter
[03:29.859] Like a sword through hissing water
[03:32.290] She arose where archers sought her
[03:34.349] For the death of love
[03:38.279]
[03:43.789] The righteous death of love
[03:48.739]
[03:54.619] Gilles adored her drama
[03:56.809] Her suit of pure white armour
[03:58.869] Blazed against the English in a torrent of light
[04:03.859]
[04:04.849] And as they rallied onto night
[04:07.359] A cancer fled his soul
[04:10.490]
[04:10.599] Dissolving...
[04:12.490]
[04:15.560] Framed amid the thick of fire
[04:19.719] Aflame, a Valkyrie
[04:23.490]
[04:24.289] She made him click without desire
[04:27.969]
[04:28.780] And in his eyes she swam a Goddess
[04:33.900]
[04:50.590] And even when they caught her breath
[04:54.520] Her words would leave a scar
[04:58.640] 'For only in the grip of darkness
[04:58.800]
[05:02.940]
[05:03.560] Will we shine amidst the brightest stars'
[05:08.530]
[05:25.200] How will you breathe when their wheels are turning?
[05:28.969]
[05:29.530] How will you know if the sky is burning?
[05:33.210]
[05:34.200] Where will you be my darling?
[05:38.140] How will you breathe when their wheels are turning?
[05:41.950]
[05:42.640] Where will you be when Babel builds my fire?
[05:46.820] Will you not flee and label me pariah?
[05:50.640]
[05:51.250] Where will you be my darling?
[05:55.0]
[05:55.558] Where will you be when they light my pyre?
[06:00.900]
[06:04.340] Aligned with Joan in all
[06:06.800] That was enthroned and divine
[06:08.140]
[06:13.200] He swore to score the crimes
[06:14.760] Jackdaws poured on this dove
[06:17.260]
[06:22.0] Crimes he knew alone
[06:23.359] Derived from minds of the blind
[06:25.669]
[06:30.560] The church unfurled for murder perched
[06:32.679] Upon the death of love
[06:35.630] Framed amid the thick of fire
[06:39.370] Aflame, a Valkyrie
[06:41.880]
[06:44.200] She claimed the skies were lit with spires
[06:47.640]
[06:48.900] And in his eyes she swam a Goddess
[06:52.750]
[06:54.700] And even when she fought for breath
[06:57.690] Her words would leave a scar
[07:01.390] 'For only in the grip of darkness
[07:05.719] Will we shine amidst the brightest stars'
[07:05.900]
