Like 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.
Fragile now
I'm coming down
The weight in there is almost free
Hold on tight
To what I've found
Won't take less than what I need
There's no easy way to satisfy hunger,
Rather starve than have to ask for help
Who am I to want to try and be a saviour?
When I'm just as lost as everybody else
All the old days have gone away
Like Mercury, they rise and fall in yesterday
All the new days are wet and grey
Waiting on the colours of mistakes that have yet to be made
Done my time
In the firing line
Of painful doubt and heavy hearts
Burnt my soul
On the stake of the world
But it still couldn't take me apart
There's no easy way to satisfy hunger,
Rather starve than have to ask for help
Who am I to want to try and be a saviour?
When I'm just as lost as everybody else
All the old days have gone away
Like Mercury, they rise and fall in yesterday
All the new days are wet and grey
Waiting on the colours of mistakes that have yet to be made
