Mercury & Lightning - John Mark McMillan

I’ve been chasing God

I’ve been chasing mercury and lightning

And I’ve been pressing hard

I’ve been coming up short

Lately, I’ve been thinking about

What’s gonna happen with you and I

I need a new religion

Or I need a new lie

I’ve been on the phone

I’ve been chasing mercury and lightning

Pressing for the deal to close

I’ve been coming up short

Lately, I’ve been thinking about

What’s going on between you and I

I need a true religion

Or I need a new lie

I swear I’ve heard the echoes of a voice

Like a dream that you feel, but you don’t remember

I’ve known it ever since I was a boy

Like a word on the tip of my tongue

I swear I’ve heard the echoes of a voice

Like a dream that you feel, but you don’t remember

I’ve known it ever since I was a boy

Like a word on the tip of my tongue

Lately, I’ve been thinking about

What’s gonna happen with you and I

I need a new religion

Or I need a new lie
