"Mercury"

(written by Kristin Hersh)

I am the opposite of you, ooh

You battle your mean spirit

I'm suffering through my own

You answer to no one

I don't know what that's like
I honestly don't know what that's like
We quit making out to attend this meeting

With old ladies on tremendous amounts of coke

And reeling, I hear my bad voice call

My wayward brain reels

My easily distracted brain reels

Head full of...

Climbing mercury, climbing mercury

Climbing mercury, climbing mercury

I am a compliment to you, ooh

We park in the shade

And somehow equate that with dealing 

I hope I don't stomp on your heart

I know what that's like
Believe me, I know what that's like
