And it was done
and we would learn
That a life was hallowed
and we wouldn't burn
Verse 5

Beneath the sign that blinks
off on
And a shopping mall where the
house is gone
Forgetting that a soul may call

setting sun
And a sign on the church says His Will is Done

And a tv stares at a blinking wall
But the lone dogs howl
and the crows still call
