Mercy For Cities
Lyricist：Maher John Francis Iii
I dreamed a dream of the city in the key of C-major
Skyscrapers, and stars between the lovers
And the thousand sad faces
Fugitive barrooms and streetcars
I live in the subway where nobody sees you
And people parade past like pigeons
I wrap myself up in the flag of my country
There's music down here but so few listening
Mercy, mercy, mercy, oh
I met a soldier who lost his leg in this last war
No one wanted and he asked for a dollar
And from the look in his eye

I'd say he'd lost much more and the thought
The thought makes me shudder
I know there's something called mercy for cities
If there's a god well he's heartbroken too
Fills up the crack and pot holes with pity
Fills up the spaces between me and you
Mercy, mercy, mercy, oh
Fills up the cracks and potholes with pity
Fills up the spaces between me and you
Fills up the spaces between me and you
Fills up the spaces between me and you
