lyrics

The blazing heat of day
I'm melting in the city
I want to stalk the forest
Naked in my skin
Ditch the sewer dives
Shed concrete from my shoulders
Kill the past inside me
Let myself begin
Only for a moment

The city strips my flesh
I'm stumbling down its alleys
Sirens sound my entrance
Naked in the crowd
No more wasted days
No more endless nights in shadow
Keep the wolves at bay
Hunt my future down
Only for a moment
If only for a moment

Be my mercurochrome

Reach your hands to me
Hold me gently in the moonlight
Free the frozen heart here
Naked in the storm
Scrape the sky of steel
Wrap me up in sweet hereafters
Taste the river's waters
Tangled up in thorns

Be my mercurochrome

Paint my wounds in red
Shine them in the golden sunset
Let me be the racing stag
Newborn every spring
Crown of antlers over me
Crescent moon floats in the water
The journeys we all take alone
Madness at the heart of laughter

Be my mercurochrome
