[Beck, Binki Shapiro, Will Berman, Andrew VanWyngarden, Ben Goldwasser, Devendra Banhart - Sisters Of Mercy lyrics]
The sisters of mercy
They are not departed or gone
They were waiting for me when I thought
That I just can't go on
And they brought me their comfort and
Later they brought me this song
Oh I hope you run into them
You who've been traveling so long
Yes, you who must leave everything
That you cannot control
It begins with your family
But soon it comes around to your soul
Well, I've been where you're hanging and I
Think I can see how you're pinned
When you're not feeling holy
Your loneliness says that you've sinned
Well they lay down beside me
I made my confession to them
They touched both my eyes and I
Touched the dew on their hem
Your life is a leaf that the
Seasons tear off and condemn
They will bind you with love that is
Graceful and green as a stem
When I left, they were sleeping
I hope you run into them soon
Don't turn on the lights
You can read their address by the moon
And you won't make me jealous if I
Hear that they sweetened your night
We weren't lovers like that and besides
It would still be all right
We weren't lovers like that and besides
It would still be all right
They are not departed or gone
They were waiting for me when I thought
That I just can't go on
And they brought me their comfort and
Later they brought me this song
Oh I hope you run into them
You who've been traveling so long
Yes, you who must leave everything
That you cannot control
It begins with your family
But soon it comes around to your soul
Well, I've been where you're hanging and I
Think I can see how you're pinned
When you're not feeling holy
Your loneliness says that you've sinned
Well they lay down beside me
I made my confession to them
They touched both my eyes and I
Touched the dew on their hem
Your life is a leaf that the
Seasons tear off and condemn
They will bind you with love that is
Graceful and green as a stem
When I left, they were sleeping
I hope you run into them soon
Don't turn on the lights
You can read their address by the moon
And you won't make me jealous if I
Hear that they sweetened your night
We weren't lovers like that and besides
It would still be all right
We weren't lovers like that and besides
It would still be all right
