PANIC! AT THE DISCO

- Mercenary Lyrics

Just a dime store poet, keeping pace, talking his face blue.
Two dollar store tramps, to get a glance, a new chance at you.

Walk passed the dance floor.
It's always been a dear friend of mine.
Cut calls and concubines.
Dancing in four four time.

"Hey Mr.", The bellman says, "I can only recall this nice hotel I said."
So he replies, "Then how do you manage?"
I dodge the blast, and apologize for collateral damage.

In love, I've always been a mercenary, but I never leave my post when the cash runs out.
I want to make you quiver.
Make your back bone shiver.
Hey kid, take the stage and deliver.

"Hey Mr," The bellman says, "I can only recall this nice hotel I said."
So he replies, "Then how do you manage?"
I dodge the blast, and apologize for collateral damage.

How does it feel to stand on the very stones that ran with your parent's blood?
Do you feel sad? Full of rage? Or does that outfit help bury your feelings?
I see your true self.
You're truly an extraordinary Specimen, I look forward to breaking you.

I dodge the blast, and apologize for collateral damage

"Hey Mr," The bellman says, "I can only recall this nice hotel I said."
So he replies, "Then how do you manage?"
I dodge the blast, and apologize for collateral damage.

Hey Mr, The bellman says, "I can only recall this nice hotel I said."
So he replies, "Then how do you manage?"
I dodge the blast, and apologize for collateral damage.

What is the meaning behind Mercenary lyrics?


When we reflect on what the artist might have meant, the song 'Mercenary' by Panic! At The Disco takes a look at the intricacies of love and identity through the metaphor of a mercenary, revealing a person who is emotionally distant yet loyal and using 'collateral damage' as a term for the unintended effects of one's actions on others. The lyrics of the mercenary represent mainly angst, despair, anger, heartbreak, and contemplation. The song also points out the significance of identity and self-perception, memory and forgetfulness, conflict and collateral damage, emotional detachment and mercenary love, and hiding one's true self and societal expectations. The lyrics deal with mature themes such as mercenary love, collateral damage, and a confrontational attitude. The vocabulary is suggestive and the symbolism can be pretty strong, thus making it more appropriate for older teens and adults.
