[Intro]
Em A7 x2
 
[Verse]
Em
The day begins to blur
A7
Under this bruised light
Em
Within the beast still stirs
A7
Am I unfit to guide?
Em
And now I'm weeping towards the sky
A7
For what seeps back into the earth
Em
Are we not supposed to love
A7
In fear of losing someone?
Em
Are we too afraid to feel
A7
Too many wounds to heal?
Em
Will they ever heal?
A7
Will they ever heal?
 
[Chorus]
Em A7
Cause we don't need this pain and this suffering, no
Em A7
We don't need this pain and this suffering, no
Em A7 Em A7
Just a little mercy, no
 
[Interlude]
Em A7
No
Em A7
No
 
[Verse]
Em
You cannot live the life
A7
The life left behind you
Em
You cry out loud with all your might
A7
But no one will hear you
Em
There will be desolation
A7
We will throw ourselves into the fire
Em
But the sooner love is gone
A7
The ghosts will begin to haunt
Em
But I know the beauty lies
A7
In the dawn's early light
Em
Well, it gives and gives in healing waves
A7
But that's not enough
A7
No, it's not enough
 
[Chorus]
Em A7
Cause we don't need this pain and this suffering, no
Em A7
We don't need this pain and this suffering, no
Em A7 Em A7
Just a little mercy, no
 
[Outro]
Em A7 Em A7
No
Em A7
Just a little mercy
Em A7
Just a little mercy
Em A7
Just a little mercy
