Daylight coming up so soon Mourn the loss of a quarter moon Blackbird bares his blood torn wings No solace here for he will bring A lonesome d**h on frost bit leaves Blessed moss and flowers for all who grieve As winter pleads it's fleeting end At fall's decay, returns again The soul withdraws, the body stays A stone shall lay upon the grave A narrow cage without reprieve Blessed moss and flowers for all who grieve
Stand in good stead as grace receives Prayers for souls willing to believe In thorns and nails between two thieves Blessed moss and flowers for all who grieve Darkness burning up at last Redemption's tears for misdeeds past Flesh betrayed anoint still eyes No breath here for we will lie In darken ground till heaven retrieves Blessed moss and flowers for all who grieve
