Will Stratton - Mercury Id Blues lyrics

Hey, you found me at long last I've been pacing here all decade for you Can you feed me nice and slow Like I'll never eat again It's true you know I've been rootless, possessed by what I can't find Now I'm useless, in love out of my mind My friends shake me and they say Don't you speak too soon, my William This might not stay But I scorn them and reply That it matters not one whit What lives and dies I've been restless, caressed by eaves so tall Now I'm bested, a trophy on a wall Will I ever have another like you? Don't you dare tell me the truth I'd rather spend the rest of my life Trying in vain to reel in that line When water is the only proof Maybe nothing can compare But I'll sit here catching nothing There's nothing there And I'll dream here, only you Coming in and out of focus Black and blue I've been senseless Mercury on my hands I'm defenseless Against my id's demands
