The Gates - Have Mercy

You held her and said

«I'm not worthy, but I’ll try to be a better man.»

«If you don’t have the time then leave

I’ve been waiting all year for something that was never really here.»

«Well you were never really here.»

Your nose and your throat

And everything that’s in between

Two eyes just like mine

A pair I wish could’ve seen

The times you were the best you could be with me

We were never meant to be

We were happening

You’re a shallow hole and everyone can see

If I called you now would you be there to answer me?

Cause I don’t know if I would answer you

When I cross the gates and I find you

Remember you said

You’re so nervous you’re so tired

Cheap talk, unsteady walk

For such a pretty liar

Finding old souls to cast a mold

And then set fire

And if you want I could take you higher and higher

You’re a shallow hole and everyone can see

If I called you now would you be there to answer me?

Cause I don’t know if I would answer you

When I cross the gates and I find you

I don’t know what I’ve been told

The road I walked was paved with gold

But oh, you didn’t want to go

I don’t know what I’ve been told

The road I walked was paved with gold

But oh, you didn’t want to go

Well I don’t know if I would answer you

When I cross the gates and I find you

You’re a shallow hole and everyone can see

If I called you now would you be there to answer me?

Cause I don’t know if I would answer you

When I cross the gates and I find you

Shallow hole and everyone can see

And if I called you now would you be there to answer me?

Cause I don’t know if I would answer you

When I cross the gates
