Mercury

(专辑： Sigma Oasis - 2020)

The days that are met with only-ness
Aid and abet this loneliness
The days that are met with only-ness
Aid and abet this loneliness
The days that are met with only-ness
Aid and abet this loneliness
The days that are met with only-ness
Aid and abet this loneliness

Tonight's the night, the wheels are turning
The signal flows, I try to keep the home fires burning
That was my stop, but the subway kept going
Nothing to lose when Mercury's showing

The days that are met with only-ness
Aid and abet this loneliness
The days that are met with only-ness
Aid and abet this loneliness

The moments are mine, if I can just seize the day
But then I forget what it is that I meant to say
I try to hold on but never too tight
The hours go by till Mercury comes out at night

Staring up at the great machine
That never began and will never end
From the silver star-lit tapestry
I see countless eyes staring back at me
Venus in steel, the unbreakable net
Venus in steel, the unbreakable net
The trail of lilies and violets ends
Trapped in steel, the unbreakable net

And the rivers run deep
Like a quicksilver stream
With wings on your feet
Your day is longer than your year
I look up at the night sky
For a moment I can see
The rivers run deep
Your day is longer than your year
The lies they feed to me
Are as edible as mercury
The rivers run deep
Your day is longer than your year
The Water-Star is singing
Its silver melody
The rivers run deep
Your day is longer than your year
Your day is longer than your year

The tomb of the red queen is painted in vermilion
Painted in vermilion
Painted in vermilion
Painted in vermilion
The tomb of the red queen is painted in vermilion
Painted in vermilion
It's painted in vermilion
It's painted in vermilion

The net's unbreakable
Don't worry about falling
The voice that you ignore
Might be your future calling
A lone word tossed about
Like a bottle in the sea
But together we ascend
And only then escape this gravity
The net's unbreakable
Don't worry about falling
The net's unbreakable
Don't worry about falling
The net's unbreakable
Don't worry about falling
The net's unbreakable
Don't worry about falling
The net's unbreakable
