The Mountain Goats - Mark On You Lyrics

The Mountain Goats Lyrics

"Mark On You"

When this is over
When we leave this all behind us
Deep in the moonless night
When the rescue team finds us
It's gonna get so dark for you
I'm gonna leave a mark on you
I'm gonna leave a mark on you

Can't trust anybody
Even the tough ones crack
Train up a swordsman
To stab you in the back
I na na na na know this much is true
I'm gonna leave a mark on you

No man knows
The hour or the day
But the mark is gonna be visible
From several blocks away

Maybe you'll make it
To the far side of the hill
Maybe you will see me coming
But I don't think you will
Make peace with your family
You'll walk softly on this earth
I'm gonna leave a mark on you
I'm gonna leave a mark on you
I'm gonna leave a mark on you
I'm gonna leave a mark on you
