Alice Mercy (To Whom It May Concern) 가사

Up and down the dirty room her voice rings out What's it all about? A maid of fourty-two her arms stretched out But nobody holds her And watch the children laughing behind her back In that dirty schoolroom Too young to realise why she looked so blank And why her face reflects doom It's a mean old town and you know it brings her down Alice mercy, she gets on her knees to pray And the friends she knew have all since passed through Leaving nothing but memories and pain The likelihood of doing anything that's new is so far-off and few Jailed by the values she holds so dear and true "They're the right things to do" But it's a mean old town and it brings her right down Alice mercy gets on her knees to pray And the friends she knew have since passed by through Leaving nothing but memories and pain Overtaken by the grief she feels, she cries The water fills her eyes With clouded vision hammers pounding in her brain She rushes out insane Picks up a knife you know she plains to take her life But it's easy to live and hard to die So she remains just to fight back her pain And like dust she is scattered by the wind and the rain (To whom it may concern) Ten years ago on a cold wet mourn I looked for you but you had gone And you never left a word You never saw how bad that hurt The way the firelight danced across your face Time along cannot erase Memories now locked inside They can't be taken or destroyed
