Tethered Dogs

Someone out there awaits you, lay down your sword
Someone out there awaits you, lay down your sword
You gave away your paradise, well, you don't love no more

You sailed so near the wind this time, trouble's your device
You sailed so near the wind this time, trouble's your device
Well, some might say you lost yourself, fighting the same battles twice

Oh, the fire of love, it's just a cut above
All your precious things, diamond rings
Get some order in your house, you'll never do without, no, no

Someday you'll want to walk away, go further and fare worse
Someday you'll want to walk away, go further and fare worse
You tried to change but gave it up, ain't a blessing, it's a curse

Well, that girl of yours is there for you, tears in her eyes
That girl of yours is there for you, tears in her eyes
You thought you'd never see the day, the day the meek would rise

Oh, the fire of love, it's just a cut above
All your precious things, diamond rings
Get some order in your house, you'll never do without, no
Down on Mercy Street ... tethered dogs weep

Oh, the fire of love, it's just a cut above
All your precious things, diamond rings
Get some order in your house, you'll never do without, no
Down on Mercy Street ... tethered dogs weep
Tethered dogs weep
