Mercy Is Lyrics

[The number you have dialed has been changed

The new number is…

Please note, the new number is…]

Just pop the tape in

I don’t know why you got me waiting

But I been patient and we need to have a conversation

Let’s lay the heavy shit on the table and stop complaining

I don’t wan’ hear about how your day went ok?

You’re a proxy mate

Too vague for me to concentrate

Too opaque for me to see which way you oscillate

Your solid state is operatic when you operate

Another day, another mile away

Joy never spreads all the way across your face when you smile

You smiled and said you learned to hate as a child

He gave you every inch and you would take every mile

But things like this don’t get a place in your bio

Pour your heart out

Fill it back up with all the water inside that dark cloud

Drink it then open up the tower and let your guard down

Call in your darkest hour to tell me how the stars sound

Too many parsecs to parse out

I’ll process the parts out

The noise from the signal

The meaning from definition

The voice and the symbol

Kismet

We never had a choice so it’s simple

It’s a bug, not a feature

What’s the point to this pencil?

Ain’t a lot that I could say that’s sharp enough to pierce the veil

I’m only here to help

But I wish you could hear yourself

You’d see the moral of the story that the mirror tells

There are scars where the spirit dwells

Why give love when nothing grows?

I’d give up if you arose

[We’re sorry]

Mercy is taking a knife to the wings on your back

At the blade of your shoulder to cut right through

Now lay your arms down

There’s no need to worry

‘Cus we know exactly how much you can take

We created this flavor of suffering just for you

Now lay your arms down

It’s only the end of the world

[There’s no need to worry

It’s only the end of the world]
