Mercy — Lyrics

I know
I should have told you
Be careful what you wish for
I know who you are
So I'll remind you
How you came to be here

You wont
Remember my pain
Your politics of screaming
You wont know my name
Or my forgiveness
Mercy's overrated

No Mercy
No Mercy

How long did I suffer for you here?
For a lifetime
And how long have I waited for you here?
So patiently

I see
You understand now
Nothing ever leaves here
We are quite alone
But if you pray hard
Maybe God can save you

No Mercy
No Mercy
