Lyrics Merciless Mother - Neon Horse

Merciless Mother

Went west like all good legends
Sure to see your name in lights
Star-crossed by the sick-sweet glamor
Fool’s gold paves paradise
Now you come crawlin' home
Guess you figured I’d be waiting
Never leave your lover all alone
It’s just the way that it goes
You left your lover alone
Why’d you do it Vampires and wise old vultures
(Make) quick work of the trusting kind
Colder shoulders than a merciless mother
Took you down and then they bled you dry
Now you come crawlin' home
Guess you figured I’d be waiting
Never leave your lover all alone
