No Mercy In This Land

What would be the first thing\nYou’d say to the Lord\nAnd the last thing you would dream\nIf you couldn’t dream no more\nWon’t you please help me to understand\nIs there no mercy in this land\nNo mercy in this land\nFollowed the river 'til the river ran dry\nFollowed my lover 'til we said goodbye\nFollowed you through soldiers who fire on command\nIs there no mercy in this land\nThese days I speak in whispers\nTravel only to and from\nCome close you’ll see the red\nOf a well bitten tongue\nThe righteous and the wretched\nThe holy and the damned\nIs there no mercy in this land\nNo mercy in this land\nFather left us down here all alone\nMy poor mother is under a stone\nWith an aching heart and trembling hands\nIs there no mercy in this land
