Mercy
Mercy
Mercy
So get on your knees and beg
I don't understand
So get on your knees and beg
I don't understand
So get on your knees and beg
I don't, I don't, I don't
Three inches from the ledge
Rubber meets concrete
Two inches past it, rubber meets air
But you just don't care
Despair, despair
But don't despair
Help is near
Superhero, her
Who
But it's too much
You don't want help
You want freedom
Not freedom to something
But freedom from everything
Everyone
This, him, her, them, pain, love, risk, life, work, art, and God
Happiness, innocence, everyone's interested
Now that you wanna die
Now that you wanna die
No one can tell you why
But she can
He can
They can
Save you
Because face it, you need saving
You're so deep in the pit
You've lost your sense of up and down
Rocket ship, headed into a black hole
You need saving
But there's no angel on the way
At least not in the traditional sense
No, the thing that will save you
Is love
Someone who loves you
Will hunt you down
Catch you, the instant before your left heel
Follows the right
In your leap forward
Someone loves you
And God sent that someone
Because He can't force you to live
But He can beg you
Through that someone
So open your eyes for just a second
And realize
That pain
Ironically
Can't hurt you
It's a glitch
A software defect in your brain
A virus, symptom of the modern age
And try not to laugh too hard
When you turn around and look that 'someone' in the eyes
And realize
It's you
It's you
That someone that God sent
It's always been you
So don't give up
