Second track from Mercia's debut EP "As the Crow Flies"

All music and lyrics written by Mercia.

Music recorded by Sam Bloor at Lower Lane Studios

lyrics

These moors have got a story to tell, about a woman and how she fell
Her temper raged from a soul that was calm
MR Jackson stayed by her side although the parson did cry
You stand accused of doing us harm

You sent those wings
That beast fouls things
From your command
Molly Leigh you are damned

Her time was cut short she died before being tried
Her grave was dug before her hands were tied
Jackson stayed and the town grew sick
With visions of spirits walking out late that warned them of their own fate
Blame that woman for this ethereal trick

You sent those wings
That beast fouls things
From your command
Molly Leigh you are damned

on your way none cried this day
as the crow flies another soul dies
you’ll find your way as the crow flies

You sent those wings
That beast fouls things
From your command
Molly Leigh you are damned

on your way none cried this day
as the crow flies another soul dies
you’ll find your way as the crow flies

As the Crow Flies
As the crow flies
As the crow flies
As the crow dies
