Songtexte: Streetlight Manifesto. Somewhere In The Between. Watch It Crash.

Last night I woke alone with a whisper in my ear - Recanting all my aspirations and my fears - And when the sun came up that voice had disappeared - But it would linger on for years - It said "We can't just blame it on our mothers - Claim everything they did was always wrong" - And there ain't not turning back when our train is off its track - And there's nothing we can do but watch it crash (watch it crash) - And there ain't no right and wrong when we know it won't be long - And there's nothing we can do but watch it crash - So mercy, mercy, mercy me - Praying for the death of a man I'll never meet - Though everyone will know the truth they'll still just make believe - Mercy mercy me - That's all they came for, that's all they took - That's all we had to offer, only dirty looks - And when they realized we'd given all we could, that's when they finally understood - Mercy mercy mercy me - Haunted by the memories of things we'll never see - Guilty for the statements that we'll never get to speak - Mercy mercy me
