Bad Omens — Mercy

Blinded by a fear of feeling, these are the kings we choseLost and looking for the meaning, I’ve been searching high and lowWhen we fade into nothing, when we go up in the smokeWe’ll beg God for a mercy That He knows we’d never showOn a canvas we stained with blood and painted with our sinsThere’s a candle melting and it’s burning at both endsWe’ll take and take Till it caves and drowns us in the wax it dripsLike a moth to the flame, you never should’ve fucking litYou can give sight to the blindBut you can’t force them to seeYou could take us back in timeBut it wouldn’t change a thingIf God came down from His kingdom, He came down from His homeAnd we asked Him if He’d take us back, He would surely tell us noIf God came down from His kingdom, He came down from his throneAnd we asked Him if He’d take us back, He would tell us we can’t goTo a rat in a maze, the end is where the start beginsBut if we made it out, I know that we would do it all againWe live and die in vain like treasure on a sinking shipAll in the name of a God we’d just abandon and forgetIf God came down from His kingdom, He came down from His homeAnd we asked Him if He’d take us back, He would surely tell us noIf God came down from His kingdom, He came down from his throneAnd we asked Him if He’d take us back, He would tell us we can’t goWe’re dying every dayTell me, is it all in vain?Is it worth the suffering?Is it worth the price we paid?Is it worth it?YeahYou can give sight to the blindBut you can’t force them to seeYou could take us back in timeBut it wouldn’t change a thingIf God came down from His kingdom, He came down from His homeAnd we asked Him if He’d take us back, He would surely tell us noIf God came down from His kingdom, He came down from his throneAnd we asked Him if He’d take us back, He would tell us we can’t goBlinded by a fear of feeling, these are the kings we choseLost and looking for the meaning, I’ve been searching high and lowWhen we fade into nothing, when we go up in the smokeWe’ll beg God for a mercy That He knows we’d never showYou can give sight to the blindBut you can’t force them to seeYou could take us back in timeBut it wouldn’t change a fucking thing
