mercy hasn't known my name this well
Like how every sea filters out
and leads us gently to a creek,
but the rest of us are weak
So let us down, if you must,
but let us down easy, Lord
Patches of pink clouds, thick smoke
Comes rising off them hillside slopes
Down here in this neighborhood
With cars I'd stop perfect
Every season I spend alone
Into my heart and in my soul
So let me down if you must
But let us down easy, Lord
Let down, let us down, let us down
Let us down, let us down,
I said pray and not tell God these jokes
He must be tired of himself so much
Christmas comes, we eat alone
A pretty girl surrounds some pretty thorn
Who takes your order, she yells it
And she cries alone in the back room
Once it stops, then she smiles
So let her down if you must
But let us down easy, Lord
Let let us down, let us down
Let us down easy, Lord down, let down
Let us down, let us down,
Let us down, let us down, let us down
Let us down, let us down, let us down, easy
Let us down, let us down,
Let us down, let us down, let us down,
