Incense and Myrrh Songtext
I heard the angels cry in vain;
I guess they knew it was time,
time for you to join them.
The words are lost in silence,
there's nothing they can do or say to will,
Heaven awaits as eyes lie so very still.
The hands of time could never fill
the void left so suddenly behind by you.

Love lies bleeding.
It's sad to know your diamond eyes,
they won't shine upon us anymore.
Weeping willow, your name engraved,
though seasons change, it still remains.
Eternal winter will not wane
through the cold November rain...
I will watch over you.

Incense and myrrh, silken red mahogany.
Beautifully disfigured,
the scents of orchids fill the air.
Incense and myrrh, a candle's flame unwavering.
A choir of the angels, places of so high they sing,
tears rain down, down on me...

Incense and myrrh, herein lies a mystery:
a cradle filled with wonder
transcends to fatal tragedy.
Incense and myrrh, a vacant room, a diary:
memoirs through the eyes of a child
and the keeper's broken promises of sanctuary.
Shelter me, carry me, pray for me,
then will you scatter me
into the stained glass sky?
Halo of empathy, shine on me,
bleed for the inner child,
like the wild rose, it has wilted away.
The candle fades as a part of me has died.

Tears rain down, down on me...
