"An Angel's Final Prayer" lyrics
Thousands of miles north she sees my eyes through
The aperture of her door
And I see hers reflecting off a kitchen knife
A kitchen knife
I feel her marrow in my bones
Hundreds of pages torn from a notebook
Full of words that never meant anything anyway
Just like these
Her halo made of broken glass from the windshield
Her body shot like an arrow
Into an acrylic-painted circle
I use the shrapnel to chisel an epitaph
Into an empty field
No one will bring flowers to an unmarked grave
She always hated roses anyway
She always hated roses anyway
Silence falls over the burial site
As a veil of spring rain shrouds the road
She always hated roses anyway
She always hated roses anyway
You should have seen how beautiful you looked
You should have seen how beautiful you looked
You should have seen how beautiful you looked
With a face full of glass shards
Can you hear your guardian angel crying?
I can
The aperture of her door
And I see hers reflecting off a kitchen knife
A kitchen knife
I feel her marrow in my bones
Hundreds of pages torn from a notebook
Full of words that never meant anything anyway
Just like these
Her halo made of broken glass from the windshield
Her body shot like an arrow
Into an acrylic-painted circle
I use the shrapnel to chisel an epitaph
Into an empty field
No one will bring flowers to an unmarked grave
She always hated roses anyway
She always hated roses anyway
Silence falls over the burial site
As a veil of spring rain shrouds the road
She always hated roses anyway
She always hated roses anyway
You should have seen how beautiful you looked
You should have seen how beautiful you looked
You should have seen how beautiful you looked
With a face full of glass shards
Can you hear your guardian angel crying?
I can
