Lyrics Keep the Pyre Burning - Witchbound

Keep the Pyre Burning

The sun will singe another field
Another well is running dry
Cold rain will wash away the crop
Another child is going to die
Must be a reason, someone’s got to take the blame
If not, our lives and our homes won’t be the same
Keep the pyre burning, Mother Church will find a way
(I'm gonna burn the other day)
While the world is turning, our faith won’t go astray
(I'm gonna burn the other day)
We’ve seen her dancing in the dark
We’ve heard her chant — unholy rhyme
We know she’s got the evil eye
Besides she’s old and lame and blind
Behind the graveyard in the alley where she hides
Our forks and torches will trace out the devil’s bride
Keep the pyre burning, Mother Church will find a way
(I'm gonna burn the other day)
While the world is turning, our faith won’t go astray
(I'm gonna burn the other day)
We came to lock you and to drag you out in chains
With glowing irons we will burn your poisoned veins
Keep the pyre burning, Mother Church will find a way…
Spark in the dark, on the shadow we raid
Smoke in the air and the demon will fade
Fire to the pyre, root out the seed
Praise to the Lord, he will bless our deed
