lyrics

When your flood surrounds me
When your waters rage and calm
I will float up on the mistakes
And the damage I have done

We washed up on the tide
That waved a slow goodbye
Into the depths I let you go
Perhaps I’ll see you down below

I'll write you a letter
While you weep at the door

By the time I'm done
You won't love me anymore

It said you're bad for me like cigarettes
But I haven't sucked enough from you yet

It'll take a hard rain
To wash you away

Rust, corrosion
And stain

Give me horns, give me horns
Give me something to be

The sun sets in the east
And the mountains eat the sea

You've got cancer in your bones
And it's coming from me

Oh god, I miss
Oh god I miss you,
I miss,
The cloth we’re cut
The seams we tear

She said to be
The man I can be
But I'm going now
I've gotta set this crab free

Suzerain
by Merchant

supported by 5 fans who also own “Goat and Crab”

Some may say the riffage is "relentless" and suggest that every song was "an epic that rolls like sinister thunder across the land". I find Merchant an underrated band that hopefully will one day have as much recognition as others. Old Man Doom
