歌词

[00:00.537] White faced phantoms in a foggy rain
[00:03.847] Minnows in the pool the way they slip away
[00:07.613] And I go fumbling go running in and repossess
[00:10.937] The story of my youth
[00:12.426] The story of my electric past
[00:14.680] Are we running after flickering sparks oh
[00:17.888] Are we babbling for diamonds in the dark oh
[00:21.306] The way we chase that Mercury
[00:24.019] The way we chase that Mercury
[00:27.836] Loud like lions in the slickest wool
[00:31.218] Desperately we haunt the other animals
[00:34.797] But in the end if all we are is dogs out back chasing cars
[00:38.061] Then pray that we don't get the things we want
[00:42.379] Are we running after flickering sparks oh
[00:45.412] Are we grappling for diamonds in the dark oh
[00:48.518] The way we chase that Mercury
[00:51.618] The way we chase that Mercury oh
[00:55.257] Love a pound of flesh
[00:56.904] Offer it up to the Gods of American success
[01:00.495] Doesn't matter what you are you're only second best
[01:03.801] If it's all that you can ever hope to be
[01:07.173] The way you chase that Mercury oh
[01:15.918] Around your fumble in the mystery
[01:19.291] Afraid to be it smells while we pretend to be
[01:22.776] Something more than what we are
[01:24.435] Losing love a bunch run hearts
[01:26.296] Mystified by everything we see
[01:30.213] Are we running after flickering sparks oh
[01:33.465] Are we grappling for diamonds in the dark oh
[01:36.500] The way we chase that Mercury
[01:39.535] The way we chase that Mercury oh
[01:43.501] Oh the way we chase that Mercury
[01:46.664] The way we chase that Mercury oh
[01:50.152] Love a pound of flesh
[01:51.934] Offer it up to the Gods of American success
[01:55.401] Doesn't matter who you are you're only second best
[01:58.556] If it's all that you can ever hope to be
[02:01.769] The way you chase that Mercury oh
[02:04.172] There must be more to this
[02:07.340] Our desperate wandering
[02:10.834] How do we put to rest
[02:14.215] All of our victims and
[02:17.723] Beneath the shadows of
[02:21.104] All that we think we want
[02:24.533] Is there a light we can't see
[02:31.438] There must be more to this
[02:34.824] Our desperate wandering
[02:38.290] How do we put to rest
[02:41.651] All of our victims and
[02:45.145] Beneath the shadows of
[02:48.531] All that we think we want
[02:51.969] Is there a light we can't see
[02:57.029] The way you chase that Mercury
