Breakdown of a shadow unknown
Tomorrow belongs to no one
As I repent the things I've done
There is a freeway heading for sorrow
Breakdown cause you've had enough
You've never felt so strong
Steal away, steal away let it all astray
It's been so long!

We know how to spit or swallow
Bring out, the Mercury Shadow

When there comes a time
With a feast on what used to be mine
Sent from the front to the back
All in numbers and hellish black
When there comes a time
With a feast on what used to be mine
Sent from the front to the back
All in numbers and hellish black

We know how to spit or swallow
Bring out, the Mercury Shadow

Is this the statement that I feel?
Accused to be an unbeliever
Hit the lights and won't you please resign
Way down and right on time

Is this the statement that I feel?
Accused to be an unbeliever

Won't you shut all the doors in mind
The ones you cannot find
There is no way that I can see
Why you keep on... haunting me!

We know how to spit or swallow
Bring out, the Mercury Shadow
