Mercedes Lyrics - Big City Secrets - Joseph Arthur

I been next to you for a lifetime 

I been watching you from the start 

Always trying to keep yourself put together 

Always needing to fall apart 

You wanna ride in my mercedes 

Tonight we'll dance outside along the seashore 

A quarter moon will paint our shadows on the cold sand 

You ask me how come we dance 

Well there is no reason at all 

I hope that you will burn down this old house 

And I hope that you will escape right through the front door 

Turn aournd when you're safe 

And talk about what they done to you 

Turn aournd when you're safe 

And watch this house burn to the ground 

Oh I hope that you will rise 

When you talk about what they done 

Oh I know you will rise 

When you watch yourself burn to the ground 

Oh I hope that you will rise 

When you talk about what they done 

Oh I know you will rise 

You wanna ride in my mercedes 

Everyday we are closer and far away 

Everyday we are closer and far away 

Oh I hope that you will rise 

When you talk about what they done 

Oh I know you will rise 

When you watch yourself burn to the ground 

Oh I hope that you will rise 

When you talk about what they done 

Oh I know you will rise 

When you watch yourself burn to the ground 

Oh I hope that you will rise 

When you talk about what they done 

Oh I know you will rise 

When you watch yourself burn to the ground 

Oh I know you will rise 

When you talk about it 

You will rise, you will rise 

You will rise
