Send Mercy My Way

by ·

1/5/2018
Deep in the dark
I need a spark
to start
the end
to this nightmare
in my heart

illuminate the sky
so high
I think I'll die
if I can't see light
one more time
The time is now
to plow
through the hurt
destroy it
pow!

I need it now
before I fly away
so gray
into the day
where the feeling of hope
never stays
with me for long

the words to this song
are wrong
the only way to belong
is to come along
with me
soon you'll see
just how dark
the night can be

but please
shine a light
in the night
a night that won't end
or bend
please send
mercy my way
today
