Give me mercy and I need it now, I�m a bleed a little poison out, I�m a cry a little river down and then I�m setting this whole thing on fire, and I�m burning up the night she died and I�m putting every last picture aside I�m gonna say what I need to say, in my very last letter to you, cuz you always made it clear, said that you�d never be my pain. So here�s to you when you cried baby blues And just paused a cool to refrain And you said she was satisfied and this body�s just waiting to die and I could listen sometimes but you said its alright its just a whole lot harder alone. But I wish you knew her now, she�s a better side of me now, and I�m doing the best I can, its what you wanted, and I sing like you were there and I knew it was just how you would smile Mary you looked just like it was 1930 that night. But hear the nights they will eat you alive, but I won�t give in tonight, You said its not worth my time and not to record them, And not to settle just a piece of mind but I can wait it out all night, And we keep on breathing [sigh] But Mary I found a sound and this heart keeps pouring it out and the glory has come, but its probably gonna fade like the tattoo that hides this shame and the reasons always fade and the pain gets out some day and I�m saying my goodbyes deeply wise cuz I don�t know how to say Stay still in the pain But I wish you knew her now, she�s a better side of me now, and I�m doing the best I can, its what you wanted, and I sing like you were there and I knew it was just how you smile Mary you looked just like it was 1930 that night If I recall the last thing you said to me, before we broke up, before it took you from me, and you said I love you more than the stars in the sky but your aliveness just gets me tonight
