Strange Mercy Lyrics - St. Vincent

Oh little one I know you've been tired for a long, long time 

And oh little one I ain't been around a little while 

But when you see me, wait 

Oh little one your Hemingway jawline looks just like his 

Our father in exile 

For God only knows how many years 

But when you see him, wait 

through double pain 

I'll be with you lost boys 

Sneaking out where the shivers won't find you 

Oh little one I'd tell you good news that I don't believe 

If it would help you sleep 

Strange mercy 

If I ever meet that dirty policeman who roughed you up 

No I don't know what 

If I ever meet that dirty policeman who roughed you up
