Have Mercy — This Old Ark lyrics

Lyrics

Well I don’t know where the time goes
But I remember what you said
And every single feeling’s dead
Every word sounds more absurd
Faith and comedy could heal the hurt
Verses dug out through some Christian dirt
Well am I everything you wanted?
Am I everything you never had?
Oh no…
I thought it was strange
How they kept me in the dark
Shouting «One day young boy you’ll be a man
and you’ll be guiding this old ark.
You’ve got a lonely heart.»
Oh but a lonely heart
Facing me A false belief
And I never thought the books I read
Would make me who I want to be Well am I everything you wanted?
Am I everything you never had?
Oh no…
I thought it was strange
How they kept me in the dark
Shouting «One day young boy you’ll be a man
and you’ll be guiding this old ark.
You’ve got a lonely heart.»
Oh but a lonely heart
I never knew how much I’d miss it till it’s gone
I still listen to your favorite songs
Wishing you were in my arms
I never knew how much I’d miss it till it’s gone
I still listen to your favorite songs
Wishing you were in my arms
I never knew how much I’d miss it till it’s gone
I still listen to your favorite songs
Wishing you were in my arms
(Shouting «One day young boy you’ll be a man
and you’ll be guiding this old ark.»)
