[Mercy]

When the city sleeps, I'm awake

Caught up in the dreams I can't create

When the city sleeps, I'm awake

Locked up in my mind, I can't escape

There's nothing I can do but wait

I call you crying 'cause it's too much pain

I can tell you don't get it

'cause you tell me that everything will be okay.

All I wanna do is cry

That's all I wanna do

All I wanna do is cry

And bang my head

Until I start to fly

Bang, bang, I start to fly

Bang, bang, I start to fly.

Maybe, I'll just dye my hair

To make me feel like I don't care

It'll be my war paint

'cause lord knows I need the strength, I need the strength

Mondays might be alright

And sundays will probably hurt

'cause when your mouth starts moving with the noise

I don't hear a single word.

All I wanna do is cry

That's all I wanna do

All I wanna do is cry

And bang my head

Until I start to fly

Bang, bang, I start to fly

Bang, bang, I start to fly

I watch the sky get brighter

The lights get higher now.

Just give me mercy 'cause I keep hurting, hurting

Just give me mercy 'cause I keep hurting, hurting

Just give me mercy 'cause I keep hurting, hurting

Just give me mercy 'cause I keep hurting, hurting

Just give me mercy 'cause I keep hurting, hurting

Just give me mercy 'cause I keep hurting, hurting

Just give me mercy 'cause I keep hurting, hurting

Hurting, hurting.

[Gatekeeper]

Stuck in the traffic that's racing in my mind

Blankets of wool just to cover up my eyes

'cause what I need, what I need is quiet

And I know what I need, what I need is hiding

I'm just a face someone's passing on the street

Paint on a smile so that no one ever sees

'cause what I need, what I need is quiet

And I know what I need, what I need is hiding.

Talk to me, keep on, talk to me

Oh, oh, oh...

Oh, oh, oh...

Talk to me, keep on, talk to me

Oh, oh, oh...

Oh, oh, oh...

It's easier for me to stay quiet, not speak a word

For if I do, then the truth might emerge

They are my emotions to feel

Nobody can poison my feelings if they're never revealed

I'll watch others live in loudness and I'll destroy the chaos in my way

I have the control

If I keep what's mine, I can have the purest soul

And live with content, free from fear

I choose my actions

I am the gatekeeper.

Just give me mercy 'cause I keep hurting, hurting

Just give me mercy 'cause I keep hurting, hurting

Just give me mercy 'cause I keep hurting, hurting

Hurting, hurting

Just give me mercy 'cause I keep hurting, hurting

Just give me mercy 'cause I keep hurting, hurting

Just give me mercy 'cause I keep hurting, hurting

Hurting, hurting.

Don't let me die

With my soul in the air

Don't let me die

When there's nobody here.
