Mother Mercy

Thank you
For giving me the time to learn
I want to thank you
For letting me burn all those bridges
Let me thank you
For knowing that it wouldn’t be my day.
'Cause you may lose your mind
And you may lose your way
But this is the pursuit of happiness.
And Mother Mercy
Hear your daughter
I’m a baby in the bull rush
I’m a fish out of water
Don’t you know that I’ve done denying?
I’m crying with laughter, so come on
Smother me, mother me
'Cause love is what we’re all after.
So, thank you
For letting me sink lower than I should have
Thank you
For knowing that the pain would do me good
Thank you
For knowing that I would be understood one day.
'Cause you may lose your mind
And you may lose your way
But this is the pursuit of happiness.
And Mother Mercy
Hear your daughter
I’m a baby in the bull rush
I’m a fish out of water
Don’t you know that I’ve done denying?
I’m crying with laughter, so come on
Smother me, mother me
'Cause love is what we’re all after.
