Rev Simpkins & the Phantom Notes - Holy Innocents' Day

Still the night
Silent the snowbound lane
Firelight freezes in broken panes
Stories are told again
Summoning joy and pain and love
Comes the dawn
Empty the morning sky
Croak the song, “redemption is drawing nigh!”
Tell out that ancient tale
How all the mothers wailed for their babes
On Holy Innocents' Day
Soon the noon
Brings the cold sun to bear
Showing up, revealing and laying bare
Innocents suffering now
Hear how the mothers wail for their babes
On Holy innocents’ Day
