Lyrics Gallows - Final Space, Shelby Merry

Gallows

I spent a year out in the desert, I spent a year out in the sea.
I spend my nights under the stars just dreaming of sleep.
I still question where I’ve been,
I don’t know where I will go,
I just look up to the skies like there’s a sign I didn’t see, I didn’t know.
Lord can you bring me back home.
I know I’ve lived a wicked life, and I will never change my ways.
And unapologetic runaway until it’s my last day.
Why is it so easy to light a match and watch?
We were made of dried up timber,
We were made to turn to dust.
Take me on down.
At the gallows it was mercy I had found.
So I went back to my home and I burned it to the ground.
An angel sat beside of me, we both watched it all fall down.
«I'm a loner of a lover, I’m a lover of my ways,
so if you’re here to take me back, there ain’t nothing left to save.»
Burned it all down.
At the gallows it was mercy I had found.
Take me on down.
At the gallows it was mercy I had found.
I made it to the edge, there was nothing left to see.
I lit one last cigarette, the angel sat beside of me.
I said, «I know you’ve got your job.»
He said, «The grace that I have brung is that your death is gonna save you from
the things you’re running from.»
Take me on down,
At the gallows it was mercy I had found.
Take me on down,
At the gallows it was mercy I had found.
At the gallows it was mercy I had found.
