City And Colour - A Little Mercy Lyrics

Oh, yeah, oh

The day begins to blur
Under this bruised light
Within, the beast still stirs
Am I unfit to guide?
And now I'm weeping towards the sky
For what seeps back into the earth

Are we not supposed to love
In fear of losing someone?
Are we too afraid to feel?
Too many wounds to heal?
Will they ever heal?
Will they ever heal?

'Cause we don't need this pain and this suffering, no
We don't need this pain and this suffering, no
Just a little mercy, no
No, no, oh

You cannot live the life
The life left behind you
You cry out loud with all your might
But no one will hear you
There will be desolation
We'll throw ourselves into the fire
But the sooner love is gone
Its ghosts will begin to haunt

But I know the beauty lies
In the dawn's early light
Well, it gives and gives in healing waves
But that's not enough
No, it's not enough

'Cause we don't need this pain and this suffering, no
We don't need this pain and this suffering, no
Just a little mercy, no

No
Just a little mercy
Just a little mercy
Just a little mercy
