Gallows - Final Space, Shelby Merry

I spent a year out in the desert, I spent a year out in the sea.

I spend my nights under the stars just dreaming of sleep.

I still question where I’ve been,

I don’t know where I will go,

I just look up to the skies like there’s a sign I didn’t see, I didn’t know.

Lord can you bring me back home.

I know I’ve lived a wicked life, and I will never change my ways.

And unapologetic runaway until it’s my last day.

Why is it so easy to light a match and watch?

We were made of dried up timber,

We were made to turn to dust.

Take me on down.

At the gallows it was mercy I had found.

So I went back to my home and I burned it to the ground.

An angel sat beside of me, we both watched it all fall down.

«I'm a loner of a lover, I’m a lover of my ways,

so if you’re here to take me back, there ain’t nothing left to save.»

Burned it all down.

At the gallows it was mercy I had found.

Take me on down.

At the gallows it was mercy I had found.

I made it to the edge, there was nothing left to see.

I lit one last cigarette, the angel sat beside of me.

I said, «I know you’ve got your job.»

He said, «The grace that I have brung is that your death is gonna save you from

the things you’re running from.»

Take me on down,

At the gallows it was mercy I had found.

Take me on down,

At the gallows it was mercy I had found.

At the gallows it was mercy I had found.
