Mercy

(album: The Gates - 2015)

Have some mercy on me, love
Don't burn me down
Take it easy on my heart, now
Because I'm bleeding out
Don't want to feel like this anymore
Don't tell me forgiveness is knocking on my door

Have some mercy on me, love
Because I'm lost and found

I know, I know
That you will always haunt me, always haunt me
I know, I know
That I will always want you, always want you
No, I won't carry this weight no more
I know, I know
That you will always haunt me, always haunt me

Lord I'm begging you please, yeah
Would you hear me out?
And if I fall to my knees, yeah
Would you kick me when I'm down?
All these warning signs I can't ignore
I hear the devil knocking at my door

Have some mercy on me, love
Because I'm lost and found

I know, I know
That you will always haunt me, always haunt me
I know, I know
That I will always want you, always want you
No, I won't carry this weight no more
I know, I know
That you will always haunt me, always haunt me

I surrender, surrender it all tonight
I surrender, I surrender

No, I won't carry this weight no more [x4]
