Lyrics

[Verse 1]

For every second you've been talking

I've been tryin' to count the lines around your face

'Cause I don't know if I'll ever be this close again

[Verse 2]

I feel like I'm just wasting time before you pull the trigger

It's the drawing of the line, it's my ghost you're gonna give up

Got your made-up mind, it hurts to see you're alright

When I'm not alright

So if you're calling it a night

[Verse 3]

Oh, please have

Have mercy

Have mercy on me

You're breaking my heart

Oh, please have

Have mercy

Have mercy on me

I'm falling apart

Have mercy, my heart

[Verse 4]

I felt you slip away so slowly

I lost my grip a little more each time we touched

I've got no hope, I guess I'll never get it back again

Eh, eh, eh

[Verse 5]

Felt like I was just wasting time before you pulled the trigger

It's the drawing of the line, it's my ghost you're gonna give up

Got your made-up mind, it hurts to see you're alright

When I'm not alright

So if you're calling it a night

[Verse 6]

Oh, please have

Have mercy

Have mercy on me

You're breaking my heart

Oh, please have

Have mercy

Have mercy on me

I'm falling apart

[Verse 7]

And I just don't know how we got

So wrong

For so long

Oh, please have

Have mercy

Have mercy on me

Mercy, my heart

[Verse 8]

Somehow I can't let go

But I know I've been holding on too long

Somehow I can't let go

But I know I've been holding on too long

Whoa

[Verse 9]

Oh, please have

Have mercy

Have mercy on me

You're breaking my heart

Oh, please have

Have mercy

Have mercy on me

I'm falling apart

[Verse 10]

And I just don't know how we got

So wrong

For so long

Oh, please have

Have mercy

Have mercy on me

Mercy, my heart

Have mercy, my heart
