Mercy - Melissa Ferrick

So would ya tell me please

What happened to me

I know I was there

But have no memory

So would you paint me a picture

Would you give me a trigger word

Would you tell me where was I

When the colony sky came down

This is not my fault

This is not my fault

This is not my fault

For this one I need mercy

Mercy

This is not mine

These thoughts that wind

This unfounded fear

This constantly seeking escape

Alone, restless and yearning

I feel like I felt before

When I drank away all my problems

Until I drank myself on to the floor

This is not my fault

This is not my fault

This is not my fault

For this I need Mercy, yeah

Mercy

I know I am not healthy

Yeah but who really is

At least I am trying something

At least I am willing to give in

And I know this is a never ending process

This growing up thing

But sometimes, life on life’s terms

Means that I don’t get to win

This is not my fault

This is not my fault

This is not my fault

This is not my fault

This is not my fault

For this I need mercy

Mercy mercy mercy

I need it give me mercy

I need I need

Come on give me Mercy…
