A Church Falling Down

Loss of the spirit followed loss of the heart
 Ashes were scattered and drifted apart
 A heart that is lost can never be the same
 When love turns to hurt and hurt turns to blame
 There's a church falling down
 A church falling down
 Sacred secrets spoken out loud
 There's a church falling down
 It ain't right
 Sister, mama, lover, little child
 I'm so sick and sorry now
 Oaths from the altar, memories won
 Mysteries and natures coming undone
 There's a church falling down
 A church falling down
 Something holy thrown down on the ground
 There's a church falling down
 It ain't right
 Well, you warned me and I heard you
 But I didn't hear you right
 I was wounded and wailing
 Lost from the light
 The promises and omens
 Turned out all the same
 When love turned to hurt and
 Hurt turned to blame
 There's a church falling down
 A church falling down
 Abandoned, forsaken, left out in the rain
 There's a church falling down
 It ain't right
