Lyrics:
I walked by Harborview HospitalI heard the Agnus DeiOh, sister of mercyI've been gone too long to sayAnd all around this placeI was a sad disgraceThey're singing, they're singingAway up on the hillThey're building, they're buildingA mystical union, beautiful and stillBut down here in the dirtThey'll say it doesn't hurtThe devil's ascendedUpon some crystal wingsIn the citadel lightningSplits a cloud of butterflies and fiendsAnd with a vacant stareI'll leave a flower thereThey're riding, they're ridingA hellhound down the hillThey're sinking, they're sinkingInto the ocean, beautiful and stillAnd yet it's hard to leaveIn wealth or povertyI walked by Harborview HospitalAnd stopped at Ninth and JamesOh, sister of mercyI've been down too far to sayAre they supposed to beAs sick as you and me?
