Mercy

Wading through the river

I see my reflection wash away

Currents of sorrow take me far below

Yet here I am

Steadfast and true

And now I can't help it

Feeling myself drift away

Like an old dog past his day

How have I been led astray

So hear me cry, call out for mercy

I'm begging you, please, oh, please

And if I'm a man, I shouldn't need it

But I'm desperate, I'm desperate to treat it

Memories of courage I reminisce

Now they sink with me into the abyss

Maybe I should've swam through the trials

Maybe I should've waited through the tribulations

So hear me cry

Call out for mercy

I'm begging you, please, oh, please

And if I'm a man, I shouldn't need it

But I'm desperate, I'm desperate to treat it

Oh-oh-oh-oh, no yeah

Oh-oh-oh-oh, yeah, yeah, oh-oh

So hear me cry
