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

Mary's crying
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

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
