I want a real love to let me in
I want to zero out and be born again
no more false starts and no dead ends
'cause I'm no shape do to what's right
I see up as down and black as white
it makes me dizzy I come apart
all this love love love in the dark

G D A Bm
I need less drowning and more land
G D A Bm
Mercy mercy, understand
G D A Bm G D A
less drowning, more land, less drowning
Verse:
They have fire in the crowd just to watch you move
they tie your hands then demand a salute
all this garden's full of snakes and fruit
Its in the click click click of the camera flash its in the definite kicking
of the flame bomb blast
but they don't call and they don't last
and you're gone
outshined
Chorus:
G D A
Mercy mercy both hands
