According to the lyrics in the CD booklet it actually says mirror, not myrrh. Actually a lot of the lyrics are a bit off, but it's not a bad effort at all, considering the Mars Volta. Here are the ones straight from the CD:
I've been drinking black mirror again
The closer we part
I needed to touch your lips
With the nail in my heart
The night that you caught me
My coffin did walk
I feel at your mercy
I fell in your grave
Meccamputechture
That stands in my way
The younger I stay
An elderly child
The longer the mirror gives birth
To the death I file
If you consume me I will not let you go
If you walk right through me
My voice will taint your throat
Blessed be the wrong I've done
Someone is watching us
Someone has found
Fluorescent ligaments
On a black and white tile
Why do you call them
If your kingdom won't come
The younger I stay
Forever I rot
If you consume me I will not let you go
If you walk right through me
My voice will taint your throat
Blessed be the wrong i've done
Because the flies my mouth spill
Bare the children at play
