lyrics

Lyrics
Sweet Mother Mercy can you see me?
The soles of my feet and my hands are tired
From this up hill climb
When will I get this damn thing right?
Sure I'm livin' someone's dream ain't sure it's mine
Mother mercy won't you lend a hand to me?
Dug my heels in until they bled
Never gave you an honest chance
Can you hear me now?

You and I never saw eye to eye
When you'd push I'd pull, i was a stupid girl yeah
Tattered dress my head a mess, won't please forgive the rest of me?
Won't you please forgive me now?

Mother Mercy won't you lend a hand to me?
Dug my heels in until they bled
Never gave you an honest chance
Can you hear me now?

Drug around this dead horse
Bit my tongue off of course, I had it comin' now
The taste of my own blood is testing what I'm made of
Ain't life somethin'
Ain't life somethin'
Can you feel it?
My heart beating again and again and again
Again and again and again
I wanna feel something again and again
Again and again
Sweet Mother Mercy, can you see me now?
