Mercy Lyrics
Tried to make it with my heart
tried again with the doing time
told again and then I troubled
walked the crooked tooth of crime
rolled them balls till I hit double
weighed the salt inside my tears
but they only accept mercy here
How many times must I fall
upon a swollen appetite
to be so humbled by a call
to amen, by the emptiness of might
It can leave a body cold
down here below the frozen light
just to leave a life unfold
burn the flag and leave the fight
relieve my body of its plunder
to be with what I hold so dear
but they only accept mercy here
How many times must I fall
upon a swollen appetite
to be so humbled by a call
to amen, by the emptiness of might
It can leave a body cold
down here below the frozen light
just to leave a life unfold
burn the flag and leave the fight
tried to make it with my mind
pitted will against my fear
a desperation undressed
a shot gun rang from far and near
tried to make it with you
and the luck of all our years
but they only accept mercy here
tried again with the doing time
told again and then I troubled
walked the crooked tooth of crime
rolled them balls till I hit double
weighed the salt inside my tears
but they only accept mercy here
upon a swollen appetite
to be so humbled by a call
to amen, by the emptiness of might
down here below the frozen light
just to leave a life unfold
burn the flag and leave the fight
relieve my body of its plunder
to be with what I hold so dear
but they only accept mercy here
upon a swollen appetite
to be so humbled by a call
to amen, by the emptiness of might
down here below the frozen light
just to leave a life unfold
burn the flag and leave the fight
pitted will against my fear
a desperation undressed
a shot gun rang from far and near
and the luck of all our years
but they only accept mercy here
