Mercy

Climbing through your scrapbook
Empty handed
Save the mirror
To replace a certain page
I'll hang in there
For years
Guess you've got to squint so bad
Looking at a light like that
You ask
I strike a match but you're my fire
Burned clearing
Breath to catch
And I've come far
But I won't ever come close
Maybe you forgive them
But I don't
Coalesced
How right I rest wrapped in your ardent heart
What I'd lack to give you that
Straight from the sordid start
Guess you've got to squint so bad
Looking at a light like that
Guess you've got to sit with that
You ask
I strike a match but you're my fire
Burned clearing
Breath to catch
And I've come far
But I won't ever come close
Maybe you forgive them
But I don't
You have paved the early days
Concrete enough to laugh
But I feel mercy acts adversely
It just makes me mad
You ask
I strike a match but you're my fire
Burned clearing
Breath to catch
And I've come far
But I won't ever come close
Maybe you forgive them
But I don't
