Mercy

Father forgive me for I know what I've done
I rise to the call of the wild like the moon to the western sun
The blood on my hands shows me how to survive
Living on the edge in the end nobody gets out alive

Sold it to the preacher stolen from the altar
Salvation for a nominal fee
Took it to the river, drowned it in the water
Won't you have some mercy on me
Won't you have some mercy on me

High on the mountain there is nowhere to hide
But you won't find the truth there it's in the darkness buried deep inside
Took your creation and then changed it and rearranged it
Rock and roll sold it's soul, and all we tryna do is save it

This ain't a revival, it's a new revolution
Guillotine for the murderous fiends pushing lies and confusion
Tell heaven's gallows that they'll just have to wait
The devil's in the details, hidden in the mirror your hand holds to your face

Sold it to the preacher stolen from the altar
Salvation for a nominal fee
Took it to the river, drowned it in the water
Won't you have some mercy on me
Won't you have some mercy on me

Sold it to the preacher stolen from the altar
Yeah
Salvation for a nominal fee
Took it to the river, drowned it in the water
Yeah
Won't you have some mercy on me
Won't you have some mercy on me

Won't you have some mercy on me
