lyrics
I confess I am lost in the age of the social
On our knees, take a test to be loving and grateful
Shots were fired on the street
By the church where we used to meet
Angel down, angel down
But the people just stand around
I'm a believer, it's a trial
Foolish and weaker
I'd rather save an angel down
I'm a believer, it's chaos
Where are our leaders?
I'd rather save an angel down
Doesn't everyone belong in the arms of the sacred?
Why do we pretend we're wrong?
Has our young courage faded?
Shots were fired on the street
By the church where we used to meet
Angel down, angel down
Why do the people just stand around?
I'm a believer, it's a trial
Foolish and weaker
I'd rather save an angel down
I'm a believer, it's chaos
Where are our leaders?
I'd rather save an angel down
On our knees, take a test to be loving and grateful
Shots were fired on the street
By the church where we used to meet
Angel down, angel down
But the people just stand around
I'm a believer, it's a trial
Foolish and weaker
I'd rather save an angel down
I'm a believer, it's chaos
Where are our leaders?
I'd rather save an angel down
Doesn't everyone belong in the arms of the sacred?
Why do we pretend we're wrong?
Has our young courage faded?
Shots were fired on the street
By the church where we used to meet
Angel down, angel down
Why do the people just stand around?
I'm a believer, it's a trial
Foolish and weaker
I'd rather save an angel down
I'm a believer, it's chaos
Where are our leaders?
I'd rather save an angel down
