about

Mercury Soul
Sometimes as fast as light, sometimes heavy as lead, they’re struggling against the tide of normality and convention in a small town. Their life feels like a bad fit.

lyrics

Lyrics
Mercury Soul
You close your eyes
the waking dreams
are all too real

Mercury Soul
No half-full glass
you drank it down
and you want some more

Mercury Soul
Want to be made whole
but being split
is all you know

Mercury Soul
Your head is hot
but your eyes are cold
you’ve got a Mercury Soul

Mercury Soul
Your twisted smile
says every silver lining
has a cloud

Mercury Soul
Technicolour highs
switch and your day ends
in black and white

Mercury Soul
The lead-filled days
weigh down upon
a quicksilver mind

Mercury Soul
You’re so hot
but the world grows cold
you’ve got a Mercury Soul

You’ve got a Mercury Soul
