Lyrics
Taste The Mercury
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
we're driving past unspoiled road signs gleaming in
the moon light to trace edge of that
bitter sweet coastline thats keeps us captive by
our pupils again captive 'til we get home
and baby i know that you haven't seen
sleep since ive been gone but i'll keep
my promises to you and wake up alone
'til we're there this isn't at all like
wind biting our face this isn't at all
like winter not at all now the coal
burns red and warming every inch of our
chests again now the coal burns red its
our reminder that this kiss goes on with
or without you so stop trying to pretend
that you don't love the taste of mercury
from my lips eating and beating its way
through your veins
