Elliot Matsu — Mercy lyrics

Lyrics

My soul been whipped
My heart been cut out beatin' and tortured long with thorns
My life been gypped
I run around in circles chasing ever shutting doors
My mind been tricked
All my hope and faith been washed away and the only thing
I feel now is fear
My heart is sick
I cry out like a little boy beggin for his father to be near
My world is stone
Concrete walls and endless halls trap inside my tired, hopeless self
I feel alone
Cut off from the source of you, cut off from the source of love and health
I travel on Like I always do I walk on through but suddenly now
Everything has changed
You showed me more
But these delusions crept up powerful
Lying on the floor I weep and pray
God give me mercy
When I don’t think the sun will ever rise again
God give me mercy
When I can’t stand to think of where I been
God give me mercy
When all the little wicked things crawl in God give me mercy
I’m waiting for the love I know you’ll send
Cocaine dust and crowded mind
Sit on two pillows to find peace
But the deep space eludes me I find broken shells in every crease
Decades of regret
Try as I might I can’t efficiently repent
I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders
And I wonder where all my angels went
God give me mercy
When I don’t think the sun will ever rise again
God give me mercy
When I can’t stand to think of where I been
God give me mercy
When all the little wicked things crawl in God give me mercy
I’m waiting for the love I know you’ll send
