Hold me down to the earth
Gb                        Ab
When the storm's right in front of us
Bb                   Ebm
Tell me we'll make it work

Steady and sound when I feel so crazy

The way that you are

How could I doubt the obvious?

We're spinning around

So let it rain down

Living in a Mercurial World

Always holding me down

Living in a Mercurial World

Kiss me right where it hurts
Gb                Ab
Wash away all the fallen dust
Bb                     Ebm
Worried I'll make you worse
Gb                            Ab
But you're teaching me how to trust in us

Steady and strong when it's all so crazy
