Mercy Please
Will we forgive us?
We're the culprit
Too proud to take the blame
We're running in monetary circles
Living our lives in pain in vein
Evolve, dissolve or implode
The choice is up to us
Are we too busy with self interest to make the changes that we must?
Sweetness
We know better than
Than to treat this like a game
We could beat this
Beat it together and
We could light an eternal flame
It's something inside us
That has submitted to the fear
It's rallying against the rest because it's terrified to hear truth
There's no evil in our voices
But in the absence thereof
There's no evil in the choices if the choices made are made in love
There's no evil in the pigment
But in the heart, God damn!
It doesn't have to live there
We can evict it with a plan
There's no moment like the present
It's really all we have
The past is gone
The future's empty
And it's always up for grabs
Sweetness
We know better than
Than to treat this like a game
We could beat this
Beat it together and
We could light an eternal flame
Sweetness
We know better than
Than to treat this like a game
We could beat this
Beat it together and
We could light an eternal flame
Oh Sweetness
We know better than
Than to repeat things just the same
This just defeats us
Over and over again
And by definition we're insane
The more things change
The more they stay the same
It's got me on my knees screaming
Please please please
Mercy please
Please
Mercy please
Mercy please
Mercy please
Please
Mercy please
Mercy please
Mercy please
