Laura Stevenson - Mary lyrics
[Laura Stevenson - Mary lyrics]
Mary, I noticed you
In your chariot, heartless
Tearing to ribbons my view of 95
And weary, I know it's you
From the shape of your eyelids
And the rumors that swirl around
Your feet like mercury
Please, please, throw your mercy at me
And all my earthly things
To your feet, I merely bring
After the argument
After speeding through sheets of ice
You stood callously crushing the lawn
Sober and right
Would you have let me in then
If I wasn't so hellbent
If my temper was measured
In your chrome-guarded bars
Please, from your station on the way down
Ease and throw your mercy at me at me
At me at me
At me
Mary, I might have been
If I settled on something
But with all of the warnings it took
And with all of my worthiness shook
And with all of my worthiness shook
You stood, unmoving
Please, please, throw your mercy at me
In your chariot, heartless
Tearing to ribbons my view of 95
And weary, I know it's you
From the shape of your eyelids
And the rumors that swirl around
Your feet like mercury
Please, please, throw your mercy at me
And all my earthly things
To your feet, I merely bring
After the argument
After speeding through sheets of ice
You stood callously crushing the lawn
Sober and right
Would you have let me in then
If I wasn't so hellbent
If my temper was measured
In your chrome-guarded bars
Please, from your station on the way down
Ease and throw your mercy at me at me
At me at me
At me
Mary, I might have been
If I settled on something
But with all of the warnings it took
And with all of my worthiness shook
And with all of my worthiness shook
You stood, unmoving
Please, please, throw your mercy at me
