Faith is falling, hate is rising

Can't you hear mother mary crying.

A chill on my skin

As I watch the world cave in

Can't see the light

With our backs against the sun

Can you believe what we've become.

I wish I could wipe away her tears

I wish I could wipe away her tears.

Faith is falling, hate is rising

Can't you hear mother mary crying

Homes are broken, children dying

Can't you hear mother mary crying.

Should I be surprised

When the truth is laced with lies

So lost, so numb

Seems like no one really listens

Seems like no one really cares.

Faith is falling, hate is rising

Can't you hear mother mary crying

Homes are broken, children dying

Can't you hear mother mary crying.

I wish I could wipe away her tears

I wish I could wipe away her tears.

Oh... oh... mary's crying

Oh... oh... mary's crying.

Faith is falling, hate is rising

Can't you hear mother mary crying

Homes are broken, children dying

Can't you hear mother mary crying.

Oh... oh... mary's crying.

Faith is falling, hate is rising

Can't you hear mother mary crying

Homes are broken, children dying

Can't you hear mother mary crying.

I wish I could wipe away her tears...
