At Your Mercy

(álbum: Notes From The Underground - 2001)

She said "you're the one and only"
She said she felt so lonely
"I don't know what to do with myself"
She's a girl who looks much younger
She's a girl who acts much stronger
She's got something on her mind

She tempts me with all her female charm
Desire reveals itself in calm
I stare at her and I wonder why
I build up defences one mile high
But I am weak like a nursling child
Truth and love shall dwell below a quivering smile

She said she'd always loved me
She said she'd always need me
She said she'd always loved me
She said she'd always need me
How could I break away when she said "please stay today"
She knew I was going, she knew I was going away

She favours nude existence
No mask, no camouflage
She'll carry you away and let you join her dance
She pretends all is well and lovely
She took my hand and squeezed it softly
She wanted more than just sympathy

She asked me to come inside
She tried so hard to keep me satisfied

She said she'd always loved me
She said she'd always need me
She said she'd always loved me
She said she'd always need me
How could I break away when she said, "please stay today"
She knew I was going, she knew I was going away

She said she'd always loved me
She said she'd always need me
She said she'd always loved me
She said she'd always need me
She told me of an old song and why it never rained
She told me of her memories of New Dawn Fades
