Mercy With the Wine

歌詞

I am blood and I am whisky Mix some mercy with the wine Not forgotten nor forgiven Down these corridors of time I was grief and I was horror When your madness I embraced Now I'm walking free to the water A witness to your faith I need a witness I need a witness Mix mercy with the wine And you lay it down beside me So close I almost taste Sweet sufferance reminds me Of this distance and this space I listen for your footsteps Listen for your psalms Not so far behind me Enfold me in your arms I need a witness Get me a witness And mix mercy with the wine Loves dreams are not forgotten They could happen any time If they make poets out of devils I'll make an angel out of mine But get me a witness I need a witness And mix mercy with the wine You played me like a guitar Played me like a deal As I say so it is written I'm the wound that will not heal. I am wings in your darkness. I am family, I am wronged Like a stranger in your garden Where he knows he don't belong. Get me a witness I need a witness And mix mercy with the wine. Yes I need a witness Get me a witness And mix mercy with the wine.
