Mercury
(joe whyte)
Left stranded on your couch, just dreaming about your mouth, the way you sing and one more drink
These days are all spare change just dropped in disarray
It takes photographs to make us think
We’re mercury, rising just to fall
And perfectly content to lose it all
This love is like a curse, frustrating and absurd
You’re my 1918
Excuses wear me down, drive me straight out of town
But I’m back before I even leave
We’re mercury, rising just to fall
And perfectly aware we’ll lose it all
Love, we never seem to fit
With hearts so big and skins too thin
We’re mercury, rising just to fall
And perfectly content to lose it all
