Did you hear
Gospel songs? 

Could you hear
Our tears making them sound wrong? 
Never had we felt more alone. 
Did you hear gospel songs?

Like a train on its track,
We made our way in black
Through the hallway to the back. 
Oh, like a train on its track. 

When four of us 
Were carrying you on poles
It was a burden we wanted so 
We could know that you were close. 
When four of us 
Were carrying you on poles.

Oh, did you hear gospel songs?
