The Corruption of Mercy

No life to be envied We look down on you, We poses an essence your averse to We are substance, unlike you, The ability to see through you Your no paragon of virtue, Like a shard of jaded glass You pierce the skin and bleed us through I takes time to see you for who you really are Reflections of hatred that graze life's lonely scar Do unto others, as they world would do to you Hypocrite, dictating that smothers, No paragon of virtue It takes time to see you for who you really are Reflections of hatred that graze life's lonely scar No traits to be envied, Deceiver through and through Set the test you would fail yourself, Unprincipled and cruel We see you and we breath you, we live you, Think as you do We waken and we see clear, We learn not to be like you It takes time to see you for who you really are Reflections of hatred that graze life's lonely scar Do unto others, as they would do to you Hypocrite, dictating that smothers, No paragon of Virtue

As life shines on your skin There's always a reason to give in Is there no fight left in you ? The world can't hold your hand Forget bitter words, make your stand Is there no passion left in you ? This is your life ! Don't waste away Wake up inside Don't fade away This is your life ! Don't waste away Wake up inside Don't fade away As troubles seep from your skin You wonder why you shouldn't give in You only have yourself to blame The world can't hold your hand The world won't hold your hand This is you life ! Don't waste away Wake up inside Don't fade away This is your life ! Don't waste away Wake up inside Don't fade away Find the time to realize You have it all, read between the lines Not everything is black and white Don't pick apart and criticize As troubles seep from your skin You wonder why you shouldn't give in You only have yourself to blame The world can't hold your hand The would won't hold your hand The world can't hold your hand The would won't hold your hand

Nothings on TV ? Your house is empty ? So you come to me ? Scroll through the names, time for fun and games ? So you come to me ? No one is picking up ? You only call me when your lonely No love in this room, let's loosen up with whiskey I will lay where others have displayed before me Its easier to swallow knowing I'm on your list Your sheets smell of victims, am I number 13 ? You won't last long, you never do, I need more whiskey to get me through. So overrated, should have been sedated, I'd rather watch paint dry ! Fill in the gaps No emotional traps Close the door when I leave Who is the next one you'll deceive ? You won't last long, you never do, I need more whiskey to got the through. So overrated, should have been sedated, I'd rather watch paint dry ! Nothings on TV ? Your house is empty ? So you come to me ? Scroll through the names, time for fun and games ? So you come to me ? No one is picking up ? You only call me when your lonely

When you wake, its all you see, The banshee fiend "She comes for me" ! Close your eyes, don't look outside, Beneath your window late at night, No myth she's real, her hand's wont heal, No one to save you from your ordeal Heart beats show, its that dying pace, My fate she'll seal, her death list graced. Unable to speak, unable to tell, Windows of the souls and so tragedies befell Unable to speak, unable to tell, the lip that drips, Tales of the foulest hell. Unable to speak, unable to tell, Windows of the souls and so tragedies befell Unable to speak, unable to tell, the lip that drips, Tales of the foulest hell. Scream silently, only you can hear Scream silently, only you can hear Unable to speak, unable to tell, Windows of the souls and so tragedies befell Unable to speak, unable to tell, the lip that drips, Tales of the foulest hell. Unable to speak, unable to tell, Windows of the souls and so tragedies befell Unable to speak, unable to tell, the lip that drips, Tales of the foulest hell. Scream silently, only you can hear Scream silently, only you can hear When you wake, its all you see, The banshee fiend "She comes for me" ! Close your eyes, don't look outside, Beneath your window late at night, No myth she's real, her hand's won't heal, No one to save you from your ordeal Heart beats show, its that dying pace, My fate she'll seal, her death list graced.

Another head hangs lowly Child is slowly taken And the violence caused such silence Who are we mistaken? But you see, it's not me, it's not my family In your head, in your head they are fighting With their tanks and their bombs And their bones and their guns In your head, in your head, they are crying... In your head, in your head Zombie, zombie, zombie hey, hey What's in your head? In your head Zombie, zombie, zombie? Hey, hey, hey, oh, dou, dou, dou, dou, dou... Another mother's breaking Heart is taking over When the violence causes silence We must be mistaken It's the same old theme since nineteen-sixteen In your head, in your head they're still fighting With their tanks and their bombs And their bones and their guns In your head, in your head, they are dying... In your head, in your head Zombie, zombie, zombie Hey, hey. What's in your head In your head Zombie, zombie, zombie? Hey, hey, hey, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh, hey, oh, ya, ya-a...

Who are you ? Cos I can see you I know you're here Cos I can feel you What am I ? Your laughing in my face I know what's coming Its churning in your eyes What is this ? Cos I'm afraid to speak Its only a bruise I'll heal, I always do Knock me down Its where I belong I won't make a sound, No words left in me

This track is instrumental.

Is this song not instrumental?

"Sing to me, seductress come to me, Lure me, infectious harmony" Death calls, disturb a hungry sea The wind shall carry me, into your arms Your voice is fatally guiding me, lost sirens bury me Still waters be my grave "Mislead me, into false security Toxic, your beauty drowning me, My savior ? seductress come to me, Lure, me, my silent tragedy" Death calls, disturbs a hungry sea The wind shall carry me, into your arms Your voice is fatally guiding me, lost sirens bury me Still waters be my grave

The eyes, that lied to me, mislead me to believe That it, was I who was, going insane Lost, the eyes I trust, the eyes that lied to me So cold, in your house of lust, no love, just cruelty The eyes, that lied to me, mislead me to believe That it, was I who was, going to feel the pain Lost, the lips is trust, the tongue that lies to me So bold, your house of disgust, no truth, just falsity. Speaks his mind when ears are closed, Face to face truth unexposed Speaks his mind, when ears are closed, the eyes that lie Eyes, that cried for me, mislead me to believe That it, was me who was, safe within these walls Lost, my sanity, tales to keep me near So cold, your voice is no, longer recognize Speaks his mind when ears are closed, Face to face truth unexposed Speaks his mind, when ears are closed, the eyes that lie

She learned to run, before she could walk A 1000 and 1 eyes waiting for her to fall No teacher to teach her right from wrong Only media icons to sculpt her lonely, lonely song No life to envy Corrupt and unworthy Mercy sits, wondering why she's here Left to her own devices A collection of cells Made up by two hollow shells, Backs they turn the moment she'll yearn, yearn. No life to envy Corrupt and unworthy Take me away So life can't find me She follows a blackened path A path walked by many a child No holding hands, no wiping tears But Mercy knows, she knows where this will lead No one can touch me No one can hurt me No one can touch me there If I don't run from here my head with explode I'm not your piece of flesh so you can unload, If I don't break this silence no one can help me If I speak now with any one believe me ? Black out, blank it out, close my eyes, filthy memory Stale breath, rough hands, closed eyes, Its torn from me, my dignity
