Mercy

Mercy came and blew me back
Sing me to sleep, whistling through the cracks
One eye opened, my hands resting in your lap
The city's hum is burnin' through our grasp

But bird by bird, we cracked
Fought might with might, pinned our roses on our backs
It was a new, it was new york too
It was new, it was a new blue
With your hair tied back, with your heart in tact this year
It's a maniac's dream, was a maniac's theme to fear
And the phone booths are long gone around here
They could see through walls, we could hear so clearly

But bird by bird, we cracked
Fought might with might, pinned our roses on our backs
It was new, it was new york too
It was new, it was a new blue

With your hair tied back, with your heart in tact this year
It's a maniac's dream, was a maniac's theme to fear
And the phone booths are long gone around here
It was a new, it was new york too
It was new, it was a new blue

It was a new, it was new york too
It was new, it was a new blue
