Mother Mercy
Mother mercy, lady heresy
Sister prudence, coked up Socrates
Troubled waters, bring a boat to sink
Time heals all wounds, is there poison in the drink?
Brother Valor, cousin Jealousy
Empty glutton, bastard progeny
Secret motives bringing shade to a shine
Mother mercy have you got the time?
Just tell me who I'm supposed to be
Clouding my eyes to all I see
Just a shadow looking back at me
Cage of plastic doesn't mean you're free
Sister Christian, servant of the king
A token fable, that minstrels will sing
Lady justice in her blinded view
Tipping her scales, to find the truth
Just tell me who I'm supposed to be
Clouding my eyes to all I see
Just a shadow looking back at me
Cage of plastic doesn't mean you're free
Dredge the waters bringing up their depths
Psychotropics, put my mind to rest
Crying jesters sitting all alone
Mouth of madness, no place to call home
Just tell me who I'm supposed to be
Clouding my eyes to all I see
Just a shadow looking back at me
Cage of plastic doesn't mean you're free
Just tell me who I'm supposed to be
Clouding my eyes to all I see
Just a shadow looking back at me
Cage of plastic doesn't mean you're free
Sister prudence, coked up Socrates
Troubled waters, bring a boat to sink
Time heals all wounds, is there poison in the drink?
Brother Valor, cousin Jealousy
Empty glutton, bastard progeny
Secret motives bringing shade to a shine
Mother mercy have you got the time?
Just tell me who I'm supposed to be
Clouding my eyes to all I see
Just a shadow looking back at me
Cage of plastic doesn't mean you're free
Sister Christian, servant of the king
A token fable, that minstrels will sing
Lady justice in her blinded view
Tipping her scales, to find the truth
Just tell me who I'm supposed to be
Clouding my eyes to all I see
Just a shadow looking back at me
Cage of plastic doesn't mean you're free
Dredge the waters bringing up their depths
Psychotropics, put my mind to rest
Crying jesters sitting all alone
Mouth of madness, no place to call home
Just tell me who I'm supposed to be
Clouding my eyes to all I see
Just a shadow looking back at me
Cage of plastic doesn't mean you're free
Just tell me who I'm supposed to be
Clouding my eyes to all I see
Just a shadow looking back at me
Cage of plastic doesn't mean you're free
