Oh can you hear the words I cry
In the darkest dead of night
While the world sleeps
Mercy on me
I live my life down in this hole
I bear the weight I pay the toll
In misery
Mercy on me
Mercy on me
Mercy
Mercy on me
Had too much pride I took a fall
Now I'm grown learning to crawl
Haunted by my dreams
Mercy on me
This ain't no home this prison cell
I lost my life, I found this hell
When will I be free
Mercy on me
Mercy on me
Mercy on me
Mercy on me
Mercy
Mercy on me
Mercy on me
Mercy on me
Mercy on me
Mercy
Mercy on me
