The Choir

[Verse 1]

The graveyard is waiting

The church to let up

The church to let up on Friday morning

The pastor is preaching, tears in his eyes

The shots were set off without warning

[Verse 2]

The aisles don't see much traffic these days

Not even for Sunday service

Inside these walls so sacred and safe

You wouldn't think to be nervous

[Chorus]

Let the choir keep singing

Those songs that no one wants to hear

Let the daylight remind us

Those hymns are falling on deaf ears

[Verse 3]

Everyone said, "We can forgive"

Is 18 years worth celebrating?

This ain't the day for finding the truth

And now all these questions keep begging

[Chorus]

Let the choir keep singing

Those songs that no one wants to hear

Let the daylight remind us

Those hymns are falling on deaf ears
