the native howl - mercy lyrics

[verse 1]
and as the willow leaves on the willow trees keep it shakin’, as they do
i’m gonna side+step ’em over this mountain and walk on waters blue
because the cretins lie and the police spy waitin’ for a miracle to come their way
when they could and should’ve easily turned their head unto the sky and pray

[chorus]
they say, father, please have mercy for what we done
let sleepin’ dogs lie in the burnin’ sun

[verse 2]
as the vultures spin and the culture’s sin lay waste to all we’ve come to know and love
well, and now honor and truth’s a mile+long in the tooth, yet it’s veracity we’re dreamin’ of
so the broken smiles and the token milestones come to make us all just what we are
as we squeeze the souls snugly into the molds, unfit to harness but a shooting star

[chorus]
we pray, father, please have mercy for what’n they done
let lyin’ dogs burn in the sleepin’ sun
burn ’em up!
whoo!
here we go!

[instrumental break]

[verse 3]
now the willow leaves, once as thick as thieves, wilt away with all our hopes and dreams
well, and a shadowy voice gives illusion o’ choice, all to silence the endurin’ screams
and so we face the dawn with a pistol drawn and repugnance burnin’ in our soul
well, and the fury at hand storms from jury to stand as we draw near to the final toll
[chorus]
we sing, father, we won’t have mercy for what you’ve done
father, we’ll never forgive you for what you’ve done
father, i’ll never forgive you for what you’ve done

[outro]
godd+mn!
