Sitting outside the temple walls
Right after 2 AM
Hoping for the clouds to part
And let the darkness in
High after the ritual
Our bodies craving more
It was all instinctual
En route to evermore

Sister mercurial, you're in me
Ever unchanging in those starry nights of youth
Sister mercurial, believe me
There will never be another quite like you

I remained terrestrial
You took to the air
I despised the factual
You became aware
And I never will regret
Choosing death when we were young
Somewhere in the stratosphere
You will watch me till I'm done
Done

Sister mercurial, you're in me
Ever unchanging in those starry nights of youth
Sister mercurial, believe me
There will never be another quite like you

Sister mercurial, you're in me
Ever unchanging in those starry nights of youth
Sister mercurial, believe me
There will never be another quite like you
