"Mercy" lyrics - CREIGHTON DOANE

CREIGHTON DOANE
"Mercy"
(Doane)

I don't understand
Is anybody there
This isn't black or white
Is there even half a plan
I listen for a voice
Someone to recognize
To take some comfort in
I hear only noise

Steal what is yours to take
Fill up your pockets before it's too late
Run stumble and fall
Cry mercy cry mercy
What difference will mercy make

I put my faith in god
But I still don't understand
I don't trust myself anymore
Amd I just another fraud

I want to be enlightened
Burn up with glory
Beleive the unbeleivable
Nothing to fear
'Cause I'm already frightened
Truth has been untrue
Love has been unloving
Judgemental in its charity
I've become a thief
