Neon Horse - Merciless Mother lyrics

Went west like all good legends Sure to see your name in lights Star-crossed by the sick-sweet glamor Fool's gold paves paradise Now you come crawlin' home Guess you figured I'd be waiting Never leave your lover all alone It's just the way that it goes You knew it You left your lover alone Why'd you do it Vampires and wise old vultures (Make) quick work of the trusting kind Colder shoulders than a merciless mother Took you down and then they bled you dry Now you come crawlin' home Guess you figured I'd be waiting Never leave your lover all alone
