Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I am haunted by tradition that I do not understand
Burn this shit right after reading
Another thing you won't be needing
Blood from your old wounds covering your hands
No one's greener pasture, settling after, greater plan
[Verse 2]
The timelines you won't like, the less that you know
And I don't like the way that shit rolls off my tongue
'Cause I'm worse than ever now, don't want to say it's your fault
The less that you know
[Verse 3]
So where did those people go?
This place looks just like Roanoke
Where did those people go?
This place looks just like Roanoke
[PreChorus]
So mercy, mercy me
Take my giving tree
[Chorus]
Tiny drops of history are leaking out from your pipe dream
Mercy me, we're tearing at the seams
Things we leave with a whimper and not a scream
[Verse 4]
Tempests in a township where the wells have long run empty
Just you on Friday morning sleeping gently
[Verse 5]
So I gave up the guilt and the ghost and still felt no atonement
And on that sinking ship, we sailed through witching-hour oceans
I'll weave a downright wicked scheme, a dalliant contingency
We play these games with aces up our sleeves
[PreChorus]
So mercy, mercy me
Mercy, mercy me
[Chorus]
Tiny drops of history are leaking out from your pipe dream
Mercy me, we're tearing at the seams
Things we leave with a whimper and not a scream
[Bridge]
Ever-fucking-green, my giving tree
With a whimper, not a scream
[PreChorus]
Mercy me, stay evergreen
Mercy me, stay evergreen
[Chorus]
Tiny drops of history are leaking out from your pipe dream
Mercy me, we're tearing at the seams
Things we leave with a whimper, not a scream
[Outro]
Mercy me, stay evergreen
So take from me, my giving tree
Mercy me, stay evergreen
