Sister Mercy
Please, Sister Mercy, come shine through my window
Make me the object of all you receive
Hold me and heal me and promise me you'll never leave
Please, Sister Mercy, I'm cold and I'm quiet
I'm shivering here as I try to keep warm
I'm nearing the end of the calm that comes before the storm
'Cause I've been lost on my own, frayed and alone
Turning to stone
And I've been shouting inside, drowning in pride
Can I confide in you now?
Please, Sister Mercy, my words are all tangled
My mind is inside of me screaming with fear
Help me believe in you now that I'm needing you here
Please, Sister Mercy, I'm withered and worried
And wondering how you can want me this way
Maybe some part of me knows all I need is to say
That I've been lost on my own, frayed and alone
Turning to stone
And I've been shouting inside, drowning in pride
It can't be denied anymore
Somehow I've locked myself up in sudden silence
Changed all the locks so that no one gets to me
Now if I stay here locked up one minute longer
I am afraid they'll be throwing away the key
Please, Sister Mercy, don't let me destroy me
All that I ask is the power to say
"Someone come save me come take all this silence away"
Please, Sister Mercy, I'm only a shadow
Of all of the sunshine that I used to be
If it must rain, let your storm wash the pain out of me
Set me free
Set me free
Make me the object of all you receive
Hold me and heal me and promise me you'll never leave
Please, Sister Mercy, I'm cold and I'm quiet
I'm shivering here as I try to keep warm
I'm nearing the end of the calm that comes before the storm
'Cause I've been lost on my own, frayed and alone
Turning to stone
And I've been shouting inside, drowning in pride
Can I confide in you now?
Please, Sister Mercy, my words are all tangled
My mind is inside of me screaming with fear
Help me believe in you now that I'm needing you here
Please, Sister Mercy, I'm withered and worried
And wondering how you can want me this way
Maybe some part of me knows all I need is to say
That I've been lost on my own, frayed and alone
Turning to stone
And I've been shouting inside, drowning in pride
It can't be denied anymore
Somehow I've locked myself up in sudden silence
Changed all the locks so that no one gets to me
Now if I stay here locked up one minute longer
I am afraid they'll be throwing away the key
Please, Sister Mercy, don't let me destroy me
All that I ask is the power to say
"Someone come save me come take all this silence away"
Please, Sister Mercy, I'm only a shadow
Of all of the sunshine that I used to be
If it must rain, let your storm wash the pain out of me
Set me free
Set me free
