Mercy On Me

(album: Accelerate - 2010)

Ever since the day our eyes met,
I had made a promise, to be there forever more
All the time me walking blindly
Couldn't see the right way
My life was an open door
Your persistence my resistance to your other plans
Girl I thought I knew you better
Girl we had the world and all the stars
Swore I'd never break your heart
Did I ever let you down

Dear lord have mercy on me
'Coz I can't forgive the things that happened yesterday
I was true to her but she left me empty
Didn't know the scars could leave a mark that's so deep
Dear Lord have mercy on me
On my heart, for all that I've been through
Like it's not enough all the things she pretended to be
I can't believe
She lied to me
Lord I'm sorry
So sorry

See the pictures in the papers read the lies on the pages
On a day to daily basis
But I know the ones, who love me so
No matter what I do
(My fans I thank you)
Sometimes that makes no difference to the way I feel inside
(Distancing myself from the world)
It hurts so bad to know I may of made
My children cry, it breaks my heart

Dear lord have mercy on me
'Coz I can't forgive the things that happened yesterday
I was true to her but she left me empty
Didn't know the scars could leave a mark that's so deep
Dear Lord have mercy on me
On my heart, for all that I've been through
Like it's not enough all the things she pretended to be
I can't believe
She lied to me
Lord I'm sorry
So sorry

A fairy tale that fell apart
I'm sorry but my hearts still in two halves
Part of me rewinds again
Takes me back to where it all began
But you only show what you want them to see
And you made your choice and it wasn't me
So I'll be moving on
I'll be moving on

Dear lord have mercy on me
'Coz I can't forgive the things that happened yesterday
I was true to her but she left me empty
Didn't know the scars could leave a mark that's so deep
Dear Lord have mercy on me
On my heart, for all that I've been through
Like it's not enough all the things she pretended to be
I can't believe
She lied to me
Lord I'm sorry
So sorry

I hope you find your happiness
