There's dirt in my nails
From scraping the walls
And I thought I hit bottom
So why am I still falling?
I know who I am
I didn't forget
But I just need relief
And then I won't give up yet
But, God, this is all feeling so hard
Why am I lost out in the dark?
And why am I struggling just to keep standing?
Tears won't stop coming, and I don't understand 'em
Maybe it's true that I'm getting stronger
But this really hurts me, cryin'
"Oh, mercy"
I'm crying, "Oh
Oh, mercy"
I'm too hard on myself
I never let myself fail
But then my body screams, "Help"
And my mind wants to bail
I just wanna be real
Stop pretending I'm good
And feel what I feel
Not what I think I should
But, oh, God, this is all feeling so hard
Why am I lost out in the dark?
And why did you leave me all alone?
Facing the worst pain that I've known
Maybe it's true that I'm getting stronger
But this really hurts me, cryin'
"Oh, oh, mercy" (mercy)
I'm crying, "Oh
Oh, mercy" (mercy)
Oh, yeah (oh)
Now, c'mon and love me now, c'mon and love me now
C'mon love me now, love me now, love me now
C'mon and help me out, c'mon and help me out
C'mon and help me out, help me out
Oh, oh, oh
Ooh
I'm crying, "Mercy"
Ooh, on my knees
Mercy
Oh (mercy)
Mercy
Oh, oh, mercy (mercy)
Yeah, c'mon, mercy, love (oh)
And c'mon and love me now, c'mon and love me now
C'mon and love me now, love me now
Crying, "Mercy" (come on and help me out)
Help me, mercy (come on and help me out), oh
Oh, ooh-ooh
Mercy
