Mercy (We Had the Right) Songtext
von Destroyer

Mercy is the word we tore from the book of languages
Mercy, one possible display of necessary changes
Too bad we couldn′t speak about our right to be weak
Back when we had the right, we had the right
Revolutions do your thing
Is the grey matter of fact still ringing true for you?
Revolutions won't defend us
From a life of love and the country madness
Native to the country I′m thinking of
Your love of shit knows no bounds Trust me, this spells the premature end of us
Seize the sun, I assume we are done with it
This natural living will do you in
The nature of giving means I won't owe you anything
And you won't owe me anything, you won′t owe me anything
Mercy is the word we tore from the book of languages
Too bad it went unspoken, our beloved right to be broken
Back when we had the right, we had the right
We had the right system, we had the right
