Mercy
Oh mercy
Have mercy on me
By this white
Picnic table
By this tombstone
So still
We traveled
Five days
Five days
With no sleep
Days passing
Like dreams
A biting scream
In my teeth
The nurse
Was so sweet
From the moment
We came in
She understood
With her eyes
Though she couldn't
Do a thing
She walked with us
Silently
And stayed
By the door
When I held
On to your hand
'Twasn't your hand
No more
And it all
Came to me
What a wicked
Life we lived
What a desperate
Hail Mary
What a foolish
Daydream
To be happy
To be ready
To have it
So clean
To be always
On the right side
Of your normality
By the Texas
State Asylum
Cemetery
All those things
That once mattered
Are now blown
With the dirt
By a wind
That's so chilly
My guitar cannot sing
By a wind
Cold as needles
Through my
Fingertips
Our girl
So restless
Guess she wants
To be fed
'Twas long trip
For her too
One she couldn't
Understand
Taking good care
Of her
Will take good care
Of me
If I should fail her
Lord have mercy
On me
