The Mourning from The Mourning by The Secret Experiment

The window and the mirror
Draped in white winding sheets
And time flew to her lying there
On fleet, fast feet

The night long vigil
And each mourning prayer
In droning answered pleas
Out of tune and air
The night long vigil
And each mourning prayer
Intoning sanctities
For one who does not care

To face her god
She needed no support
In prayers for the living
To face her god
She needed no support
And words fall like stones

The burning black wicked candles
Lighting comfortless air
And heads bowed in mock despair
Mouthing mourning prayer

The night long vigil
And each mourning prayer
In droning answered pleas
Out of tune and air
The night long vigil
And each mourning prayer
Intoning sanctities
For one who does not care

To face her god
She needed no support
In prayers for the living
To face her god
She needed no support
And words fall like stones
