"Mercy" lyrics - GARY NUMAN

GARY NUMAN
"Mercy"

I know
I should have told you
Be careful what you wish for
I know who you are
So I'll remind you
How you came to be here

You won't
Remember my pain
Your 'Politics of Screaming'
You won't know my name
Or my forgiveness
Mercy's overrated

[Chorus:]
No mercy
No mercy

[Bridge:]
How long did I suffer for you here?
For a lifetime
And how long have I waited for you here?
So patiently

I see
You understand now
Nothing ever leaves here
We are quite alone
But if you pray hard
Maybe God can save you

[Chorus:]
No mercy
No mercy
No mercy
No mercy
