Tossed into my own arms now and dragged off to sleep
And we wonder how long then
Will she circle the same tree?
Every time my heart comes back picks me up like mercury
I forget to wear shoes with tread
Lessons that slip into the sea
Nothing left of me to stitch I'm scattered all about the floor
Tossed into my own arms now and dragged off to sleep
Like mercury
Changed the house now a new shade of red
Changed the curtains and the bed
Sit and count my one two threes
I can't wait till we can be like mercury
