Mary, I noticed you in your chariot, heartless Tearing to ribbons my view of '95 And weary, I know it's you from the shape of your eyelids And the rumors that swirl around your feet like mercury Please, please, throw your mercy at me And all my earthly things to your feet, I merely bring ♪ After the argument, after speeding through sheets of ice You stood callously crushing the lawn, sober and right Would you have let me in then, if I wasn't so hellbent? If my temper was measured in your chrome-guarded bars? Please, from your station on the way down Ease and throw your mercy at me, at me At me, at me, at me ♪ Mary, I might have been if I settled on something But with all of the warnings it took And with all of my worthiness shook And with all of my worthiness shook You stood, unmoving Please, please, throw your mercy at me
