Mercy

You've got a hold of me

Don't even know your power

I stand a hundred feet

But I fall when I'm around you

You show me an open door

Then you go and slam it on me

I can't take anymore

I'm sayin'

Baby, please have mercy on me

Take it easy on my heart

Even though you don't mean to hurt me

You keep tearin' me apart

Please have mercy, mercy on my heart

Please have mercy, mercy on my heart

I'd drive through the night

Just to be near you, baby

Heart open, testify

Tell me that I'm not crazy

I'm not askin' for a lot

Just that you're honest with me

And my pride, is all I got

I'm sayin'

Baby, please have mercy on me

Take it easy on my heart

Even though you don't mean to hurt me

You keep tearing me apart

Won't you please have mercy on me?

I'm a puppet on your string

Even though you've got good intentions

I need you to set me free

Won't you please have mercy, mercy on my heart?

Please have mercy, mercy on my heart

Consumin' all the air inside my lungs

Rippin' all the skin from off my bones

I'm prepared to sacrifice my life

I would gladly do it twice, ooh

Consumin' all the air inside my lungs

Rippin' all the skin from off my bones

I'm prepared to sacrifice my life

I would gladly do it twice

Please have mercy on me

Take it easy on my heart

Even though you don't mean to hurt me

You keep tearin' me apart

Won't you please have mercy on me?

I'm a puppet on your string

Even though you've got good intentions

I need you to set me free

Won't you please have mercy, mercy on my heart?

Please have mercy, mercy on my heart
