Mercy

Blinded by a fear of feeling, these are the kings we chose
 Lost and looking for the meaning, I've been searching high and low
 When we fade into nothing, when we go up in the smoke
 We'll beg God for a mercy that He knows we'd never show
 ♪
 On a canvas we stained with blood and painted with our sins
 There's a candle melting and it's burning at both ends
 We'll take and take 'til it caves and drowns us in the wax, it drips
 Like a moth to a flame, you never should've fucking lit
 You can give sight to the blind
 But you can't force them to see
 You could take us back in time
 But it wouldn't change a thing
 If God came down from His kingdom
 He came down from His home
 And we asked Him if He'd take us back
 He would surely tell us no
 If God came down from His kingdom
 He came down from his throne
 And we asked Him if He'd take us back
 He would tell us we can't go

 To a rat in a maze, the end is where the start begins
 But if we made it out, I know that we would do it all again
 We live and die in vain like treasure on a sinking ship
 All in the name of a God, we'd just abandon and forget
 If God came down from His kingdom
 He came down from His home
 And we asked Him if He'd take us back
 He would surely tell us no
 If God came down from His kingdom
 He came down from his throne
 And we asked Him if He'd take us back
 He would tell us we can't go
 We're dying every day
 Tell me, is it all in vain?
 Is it worth the suffering?
 Is it worth the price we paid?

 Is it worth it?
 Yeah
