Mercy

I got a feeling of unrighteousness

Bitter cold and hollow bitterness

Down the road

I walk with loneliness

Mercy will follow me, I'm told

My sister sang a song so sweet and sad

About a man whose love I never had

There's a train bound for Gillian

And mercy will follow me, I'm told

Mercy, will you follow me?

Mercy, will you follow me?

Til my final breath at last I take

Mercy, will you follow me?

Mercy, will you follow me?

Til the chains of this old world I finally break

Under this skin

There lies a heart of stone

That's growing old so very far from home

But a heart of gold I may one day own

And mercy will follow me, I'm told

Mercy, will you follow me?

Mercy, will you follow me?

Til my final breath at last I take

Mercy, will you follow me?

Mercy, will you follow me?

Til the chains of this old world I finally break
