Cloistered in Purfleet
Witnesses
Let me bury you 'neath stones and mortar And let me promise you my love That anyone Within reach of a whisper Will be dead By the time We meet once more Inside these walls Was someone watching? I've killed so many more Was someone watching? When I laid you here? Inside these walls Where I left you I've loved so many more Was someone watching? When I laid you here? Hide you away from The rest of the world

The Holy Water EP marks a new chapter in Witnesses’ doom metal sound–slowing the pace further, enhancing the atmosphere, and for the first time bringing long-time collaborator Gabbi Coenen into the metal side of the project. Thematically, the EP explores Stoker’s Lucy Westenra and Mina Harker, imagining the characters from different perspectives.
