Mercy Mercy Songtext
von Silverstein

Watch me bleed
Capture what it′s worth
It's only good if you know it hurts
Come clean
You′re a sadist, you love it
So meet on the blood

Mercy, mercy, I beg you please
Close your eyes and set me free
I am you, but you can't be me
I am you, but you can't be me

I hate to say that I told you so
One down, a billion more to go
Yeah, I hate to say that I told you so
One down, a billion more to go


Bury me deep underneath all the things that I need
It′s the start of the end, and now I can′t stop counting the days
Now everything, everything, everything's drifting away
We′ll raise a toast to the age of decay
And I will slip quietly into my grave, yeah

Wash away your own grease and dirt
Looking through the glass, you can't leave
It′s all for you, it's all for you
You wage the war to take in the view
You bet the house, and now you can′t lose
It's all for you (it's all for you)

Bury me deep underneath all the things that I need
It′s the start of the end, and now I can′t stop counting the days (counting the days)
Now everything, everything, everything's drifting away
We′ll raise a toast to the age of decay
And I will slip quietly into my grave

From the emergency broadcast system
This is only a test
I know we haven't spoken in a while, and things have been weird
The world is such a different place
And I′m just trying to get out of my mind at this point
Anyway, I have to go now
