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 sing your lullabies, your melodies like a symphony I keep burning You keep turning me down Followed your name,

Or is this a vision in my mind? I'm not one who make believes I know that leaves are green I know just what I say Today's not yesterday And all things have an ending But what I'd like to know Is could a place like this exist so beautiful People hand in

If you believed in me But it wouldn't be make-believe Without your love Say, it's only a paper moon Sailing over a cardboard sea Yes, it's only a canvas sky Hanging over a muslin tree It's a melody played in a penny arcade It's a Barnum and Bailey world

Live long and die for me We are killed gods We make this world worth saving (are) Are you prepared to believe? (killed) Kill everything that kills you (gods) Wallow in the winter of it Discover what you truly covet Underneath the floor, above it

On the news tonight Well mama said It's just make believe You can't believe everything you see So baby close your eyes to the lullabies A billion people died on the news tonight But not so many cried at the terrible sight Who's the one to decide that it

There's nothing to say now The feelings are already dead (they're dead) And I don't believe there's a way now All that is said has been said (been said) I'm waiting for another day, another way I don't believe that you can make all the pain go away So

But only if you told me to I don't wanna steal you away Or make you change the things that you believe I just wanna drink from the words you say And be everything you need Yeah I could be so good at loving you Well I've been searching for something true

I'm gonna watch you These rocks they hold heat Pools of water cool your feet As you walk you believe Every part of the dream You walk into the world you make You lose yourself but you find your way We turn so slow I know it's hard to wait

Is your love enough? Is your love enough? Aah Na na na na na na eh Come on make me believe it Can you keep me up All the way through the evening? One kiss, you're falling in love (Are you up for this? Are you up for this?) Too much is never too much

Because you live and breathe Because you make me believe in myself When nobody else can help Because you live girl Has twice as many stars in the sky Because you live, I live Staring out at the rain with a heavy heart Its the end of the world in my mind
