This house was built with blood and bone
And it crumbled, yes, it crumbled
The statues they made were beautiful
But they were lies of stone, they were lies of stone
Trumpets blare with silent sound
I need to make you proud
Tell me, can you hear me now?

Mercy on me, mercy
Have mercy on me
(Mercy, yeah, mercy, yeah)
I can see you hurtin badly, see you hurtin badly
(Can see you hurtin , see you hurtin badly)
(Mercy, mercy)

Say a prayer for what has been
We ll be the ones to purify our Fathers sins
American Requiem
Them old ideas (Yeah) are buried here (Yeah)
Amen (Amen)
