Paradise Lost - Mercy lyrics
[Paradise Lost - Mercy lyrics]
You live for times of solace
Within a sign there's a promise
Don't lose all faith 'cos you shake at night
It's in the art of the process
In another rhyme beyond this place
The healing's fast enough
Done a thousand times
A thousand ways, until you've had enough
It's mercy you're asking for
Cheating life by taking more
It's mercy you're asking for
Take my life or give me more
The loss of prize possessions
To cure the mind's obsessions
Could trade your soul for that normal life
Elite to all objections
See beyond all tears and broken years
Your senses giving up
Lose all confidence at your expense
Your courage swallowed up
It's mercy you're asking for
Cheating life by taking more
It's mercy you're asking for
Take my life or give me more
In another rhyme beyond this place
The healing's fast enough
Done a thousand times
A thousand ways, until you've had enough
It's mercy you're asking for
Take my life or give me more
It's mercy you're asking for
Cheating life by taking more
It's mercy you're asking for
Take my life or give me more
Within a sign there's a promise
Don't lose all faith 'cos you shake at night
It's in the art of the process
In another rhyme beyond this place
The healing's fast enough
Done a thousand times
A thousand ways, until you've had enough
It's mercy you're asking for
Cheating life by taking more
It's mercy you're asking for
Take my life or give me more
The loss of prize possessions
To cure the mind's obsessions
Could trade your soul for that normal life
Elite to all objections
See beyond all tears and broken years
Your senses giving up
Lose all confidence at your expense
Your courage swallowed up
It's mercy you're asking for
Cheating life by taking more
It's mercy you're asking for
Take my life or give me more
In another rhyme beyond this place
The healing's fast enough
Done a thousand times
A thousand ways, until you've had enough
It's mercy you're asking for
Take my life or give me more
It's mercy you're asking for
Cheating life by taking more
It's mercy you're asking for
Take my life or give me more
