House Of Mercy Lyrics

In the middle of the night again
Still water and the birds don't sing
Cold gin in the back room humming
Medicating for the trouble that's comingWalls rattle like a deisel freighter
Blood races like a wave
This house wasn't meant for strangers
But you come knocking anywayI can hear you knocking on the door
I won't leave it open for you anymore
I can hear you knocking on the door
Knocking on the door of the house of mercy
Don't try to change my mind
That knock gets louder all the time
Don't try to wear me down
You'll never get inside this houseUnderneath that shirt you're wearing
Strained muscles and a heart of stone
Leather costume like a wild chameleon
You make me want to be aloneI can hear you knocking on the door
I won't leave it open for you anymore

I can hear you knocking on the door
Knocking on the door of the house of mercyDon't try to change my mind
That knock gets louder all the time
Don't try to wear me down
you'll never get inside this house
I can hear you knocking on the door
I won't leave it open for you anymore
I can hear you knocking on the door
Knocking on the door of the house of mercy
