Time stands too still
Left you there for the kill
But this hope that sorrow bleeds
Leaves a man with nothing
There's just no mercy in your eyes
There ain't no time to set things right
And I'm afraid I've lost the fight
I'm just a painful reminder
Another day you leave behind
Love grows a fear
Suites your taste of bitter ends
But this stake that holds you in
Leaves no place to begin
There's just no mercy in your eyes
There ain't no time for selling lies
And I'm afraid I've lost the fight
I'm just a painful reminder
Another day you leave behind
Words seem so blind
I've been pushed far aside
To my choice seems too small
Any move and I could fall
There's just no mercy in your eyes, child
There ain't no time to set things right
And I'm not preaching to the choir
I'm just a painful reminder
And you're a fool to satisfy
Left you there for the kill
But this hope that sorrow bleeds
Leaves a man with nothing
There's just no mercy in your eyes
There ain't no time to set things right
And I'm afraid I've lost the fight
I'm just a painful reminder
Another day you leave behind
Love grows a fear
Suites your taste of bitter ends
But this stake that holds you in
Leaves no place to begin
There's just no mercy in your eyes
There ain't no time for selling lies
And I'm afraid I've lost the fight
I'm just a painful reminder
Another day you leave behind
Words seem so blind
I've been pushed far aside
To my choice seems too small
Any move and I could fall
There's just no mercy in your eyes, child
There ain't no time to set things right
And I'm not preaching to the choir
I'm just a painful reminder
And you're a fool to satisfy
