Mercy
It's no different than driving full speed down a sleeping boulevard
Reckless and stupid and one more thing we took too far
Or like bullets all the words you aimed and shot directly at my head
Front row to the hailstorm, at the middle of the end
I missed you by a week in Chicago
Ran you down in Tennessee
I'd never seen time move so slow
But that's just what we did to me
And that's why, you don't drive the desert at night
And that's why, I went left when I knew you were right
Mercy, mercy, mercy on me
Mercy, mercy, leaves some mercy for me
It's like climbing the wall with no way of coming down
And this don't mean a goddamn thing if you're not around
Like slipping through my fingers into the faceless crowd
Like a hammer ten stories up, straight to the ground
I missed you by a week in Chicago
I gave up when the weather turned
I'd never seen time move so slow
And this is everything I learned
And that's why, you don't drive the desert at night
And that's why, I went left when I knew you were right.
Reckless and stupid and one more thing we took too far
Or like bullets all the words you aimed and shot directly at my head
Front row to the hailstorm, at the middle of the end
I missed you by a week in Chicago
Ran you down in Tennessee
I'd never seen time move so slow
But that's just what we did to me
And that's why, you don't drive the desert at night
And that's why, I went left when I knew you were right
Mercy, mercy, mercy on me
Mercy, mercy, leaves some mercy for me
It's like climbing the wall with no way of coming down
And this don't mean a goddamn thing if you're not around
Like slipping through my fingers into the faceless crowd
Like a hammer ten stories up, straight to the ground
I missed you by a week in Chicago
I gave up when the weather turned
I'd never seen time move so slow
And this is everything I learned
And that's why, you don't drive the desert at night
And that's why, I went left when I knew you were right.
