Sacred Kind

Can you sing "By the Mark"
From where you're resting now?
You take the melody
I have the harmony down
In the mother of pearl beneath my strings
You carved your hand reaching from the clouds

Was it a sign
That you would leave us all behind?
Was there anything left on earth
That could have kept you here?
Did you even know
You were the sacred kind?
Then you made the world resign
When you put your fire out

Roads you'll never drive
Unseen visions of your future wife
Instruments you would have made
And the songs you'll never get to write
They all went up in a cloud of smoke
When your flame heaved its last sigh

We missed the signs
That you would leave us all behind
Was there anything left on earth
That could have kept you here?
Did you even know
You were the sacred kind?
Then you made the world resign
When you put your fire out
