Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When you read the news, does it make you sick?
Murder, money, politics
Gonna fill you up, get your bullshit fix
It's the end of the world, grab your crucifix
[Refrain]
And fall to your knees
And beg God, "Please
Have mercy on me" (Mercy)
[Verse 2]
When you turn on the TV, what do you get?
Sex, lies, scandal, violence
Like the end of a gun pressed against your lips
It's the end of the world, grab your crucifix
[Refrain]
And fall to your knees
And beg God, "Please
Have mercy on me"
[Verse 3]
When you can't buy gas and you can't pay rent
And what you've got left is the government's
No win, no future, no benefit
It's the end of the world, grab your crucifix
[Refrain]
And fall to your knees
And beg God, "Please
Have mercy on me"
[PreChorus]
Coming out of the hypocrisy
Coming out of the bureaucracy
Coming in to lead a war
They're a shame
[Chorus]
You can ignore what you cannot see
You can believe in a lie
You can run away from anything
Until you open your eyes
[Instrumental]
No rest for the wicked, yeah, they never quit
Watchin', waiting for the next trick
We won't be celebrating when the atom's split
It's the end of the world, grab your crucifix
[Refrain]
And fall to your knees
And beg God, "Please
Have mercy on me"
[Instrumental]
Coming out of the hypocrisy
Coming out of the bureaucracy
Coming in to lead a war
They're a shame
[Chorus]
You can ignore what you cannot see
You can believe in a lie
You can run away from anything
Until you open your eyes
[PostChorus]
Coming out of the hypocrisy
Coming out of the bureaucracy
Coming in to lead a war
They're a shame
