Followed your name, into the wild, yeah, yeah Sold you my shame, I ran a mile I sing your lullabies, your melodies like a symphony We burn the same, inside a fire I just need a little mercy, mercy on me I could use a little mercy, mercy on me I drank your holy water, your liberty, your make-believe I could use a little mercy, oh mercy on me I played the game, I reconciled, well, well, well, well I wear the blame, like a suit and tie I sing your lullabies, your melodies like a symphony We fall the same, when we walk the wire I just need a little mercy, mercy on me I just need a little mercy, mercy on me I drank your holy water, your liberty, your make-believe I could use a little mercy, oh mercy on me I keep burning You keep turning me down I keep burning You keep turning me down I just need a little mercy, mercy on me I just need a little mercy, mercy on me I drank your holy water, your liberty, your make-believe I could use a little mercy, oh mercy on me
