Merciless Mother - Neon Horse

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
