Part 1: Mercy
[Verse 1]
WGhen the city sleeps, I'm awake
Caught up in the drAmeams I can't create
When the cGity sleeps, I'm awake
Locked up in my mAmind, I can't escape
There's Gnothing I can do but wait
I call you cEmrying 'cause it's too much pain
I can teGll you don't get it
'Cause you tell me that everyAthing will be okay
[Bridge]
GAll I wanna dBmo is cry
That's aGll I wanna Bmdo
GAll I wanna dBmo is cry
And bang my hAead
Until I start to fGly
BDang, bang, I start to fGly
BDang, bang, I start to fGly
[Verse 2]
GMaybe, I'll just dye my hair
To make me fAmeel like I don't care
It'll bGe my war paint
'Cause Lord knows I nEmeed the strength, I nDeed the strength
GMondays might be alright
And SunAmdays will probably hurt
'Cause when your moGuth starts moving with the noise
I don't hear a sAmingle word
[Bridge]
GAll I wanna dBmo is cry
That's aGll I wanna Bmdo
GAll I wanna dBmo is cry
And bang my hAead
Until I start to fGly
BDang, bang, I start to fGly
BDang, bang, I start to fGly
I watch the sEmky get brighter
The ligAhts get higher now
[Chorus]
GJust give me mercy 'cEmause I keep hurting, hurting
GJust give me mercy 'cEmause I keep hurting, hurting
GJust give me mercy 'cEmause I keep hurting, hurting
GJust give me mercy 'cEmause I keep hurting, hurting
GJust give me mercy 'cEmause I keep hurting, hurting
GJust give me mercy 'cEmause I keep hurting, hurting
GJust give me mercy 'cEmause I keep hurting, hurting
HAurting, hurting
Part 2: Gatekeeper
[Verse 1]
GStuck in the traffic that's Emracing in my mind
GBlankets of wool just to Emcover up my eyes
'Cause Amwhat I need, what I need is Emquiet
And I know Amwhat I need, what I need is Emhiding
GI'm just a face someone's Empassing on the street
GPaint on a smile so that Emno one ever sees
'Cause Amwhat I need, what I need is Emquiet
And I know Amwhat I need, what I need is Emhiding
[Bridge]
GTalk to me, keep on, Amtalk to me
Oh, Emoh, oh
Oh, Aoh, oh
GTalk to me, keep on, Amtalk to me
Oh, Emoh, oh
Oh, Aoh, oh
[Interlude]
N.C.It's easier for me to stay quiet, not speak a word
N.C.For if I do, then the truth might emerge
N.C.They are my emotions to feel
N.C.Nobody can poison my feelings if they're never revealed
N.C.I'll watch others live in loudness and I'll destroy the chaos in my way
N.C.I have the control
N.C.If I keep what's mine, I can have the purest soul
N.C.And live with content, free from fear
N.C.I choose my actions
N.C.I am the gatekeeper
[Chorus]
GJust give me mercy 'cEmause I keep hurting, hurting
GJust give me mercy 'cEmause I keep hurting, hurting
GJust give me mercy 'cEmause I keep hurting, hurting
HAurting, hurting
GJust give me mercy 'cEmause I keep hurting, hurting
GJust give me mercy 'cEmause I keep hurting, hurting
GJust give me mercy 'cEmause I keep hurting, hurting
HAurting, hurting
[Outro]
GDon't let me Emdie
With my Amsoul in the Gair
GDon't let me Emdie
When tAhere's nobody hGere
