8.Nineteen Twenty Nine

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?
