Gospel version (mercury version)

Verse 1 I don’t remember — sometimes. The silver. The crack in the sky. Coins in my mouth, heavy with names, not mine. Chorus I don’t what — sometimes. That is how pain becomes wisdom. That is how sorrow burns. Verse 2 Mercury runs — in my veins, in the mirrors, in the hands I drop, in the lovers that turn — sand. Chorus I don’t what — sometimes. That is how pain becomes wisdom. That is how sorrow burns. Bridge Fast—faster—faster. The trickster speaks. I answer. I don’t know who. I don’t know why. I don’t what — sometimes. Final Chorus That is how pain becomes wisdom. That is how sorrow burns. Mercurial year — you tore me open. I walk, I walk not the same.
