lyrics

Mercy came home today
She was wearing a long black dress
With a hem that grew from the grave
Of a million murdered men.

She came from the beach where she prays
With the widows of the sea
For the fathers and all of the sons
Who look a lot like me
Coming home
With the debris

Mercy please
Please take me home tonight,
I don’t want to go home on my own
And Desire has switched off her light

All of the bars have been closed
On a night that never should end
Desire was still wearing her clothes
When she left to go home with my friend
Leaving me freezing cold
In the rain.
But the streets are alive
Because drunks need to fight
And it looks a lot like me
Going home
With the debris

Mercy please
Please take me home tonight,
I don’t want to go home on my own
And Desire has switched off her light…
