Mercy

[Verse 1]

Simplicity does not come easy

When you're dreaming of being someone else

And grace you see is fleeting

When you're bleeding your inner self

[Chorus]

Have mercy on me please

Have mercy, I'm on my knees

I'm being broken again and again

I'll keep being broken until I remain

Open

[Verse 2]

When you're locked away

Fighting shadows, constant battles

Trying to feel safe

When your own armor starts killing you

Cause it's causing you to sink beneath it's weight

[Chorus]

Call for mercy, won't you please

Call for mercy, get on your knees

You're being broken, again and again

You'll keep being broken, until you remain

Open

[Verse 3]

You feel the pain, give into it

Cry 'til you crack, that's how the light gets in

Set your weapons on the ground

Until you're naked and trembling now

And when you think you can't stand any more

[Chorus]

Give mercy to someone in need

Give mercy, don't you see

Life will break our hearts, again and again

We'll keep being broken until we remain

Open

[Outro]

Can't you see

I have broken wide open

Let yourself be broken wide open

I have broken open
