[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Down in the meadows where the pale flowers grow
Where the forgotten souls drift to and fro
There walks a merchant with an empty stare
Counting your sins like coins in the air
He don't need gold, he don't need your name
Just the weight of the darkness you chose to claim
And when he finds you, and he always will
You'll pay in blood for every deal
[Chorus]
Gary's coming, better hide your soul
Every debt gets paid in full
You gave yourself to the swamp and the grave
Now the merchant's here to collect what you gave
Gary's coming, ain't no place to run
What you owe, it can't be undone
You built your temple out of midnight stone
Now you'll never make it home
[Verse 2]
They put him down but he won't stay dead
Keeps walking back with that price on your head
Flicker him once, he comes for them all
Flicker him twice, watch the whole table fall
From Theros came this simple truth
The more you gave, the more he took
Every symbol burned into your soul
Is another piece he's coming to hold
[Chorus]
Gary's coming, better hide your soul
Every debt gets paid in full
You gave yourself to the swamp and the grave
Now the merchant's here to collect what you gave
Gary's coming, ain't no place to run
What you owe, it can't be undone
You built your temple out of midnight stone
Now you'll never make it home
[Bridge]
They look right past him
Just another shuffling shade
But empires have fallen
To the debts he's made
In the Asphodel meadows
The gray flowers never die
And neither does the merchant
No matter how you try
[Final Chorus]
Gary's coming, better hide your soul
Every debt gets paid in full
You gave yourself to the swamp and the grave
Now the merchant's here to collect what you gave
Gary's coming, ain't no place to run
What you owe, it can't be undone
You built your temple out of midnight stone
Now you'll never make it home
[Outro]
He's always coming...
