No I will not lay down
I will not live my life like a ghost in this town
I am not lonely swear to God I'm just alone

I'm back on my feet
I can just close my eyes and forget everything
My house is empty every memory blown away

Oh the sound of the wind through my bones
makes me laugh
at all the bodies I kissed and never knew
Oh the sound of a lover's sympathy
falling down to the floor
just barely out of reach from me

No I will not go back
every word that's been hiding inside of my head
is running blindly look behind me nothing's left

I can sit in a room
I can hear myself breathing and be quite amused
life is simple like the wrinkles on my skin

Oh the sound of the wind through my heart
makes me glad
for all the ones that never knew my name
Oh the sound of a lover's sympathy
I had to go
could not stay here
they were always out of reach from me

Why does everybody hurt
Every bitter sickening word breaks my heart
Why can't anybody hear
When the thunder disappears and the sun breaks free
It's time for mercy
It's time for mercy
Mercy me
Every color every shade
Everyone an angel made from the breath of God
I'm your mother I抦 your son
I am not the other one that you love to hate
It's time for mercy
It's time for mercy
Pretty please...
When the fires all burn down
When they open up the ground and put you in
I'll lay flowers on your grave
It's a little too late for sorry now
It's time for mercy
It's time for mercy
It's time for mercy
Mercy me

When I held you, you would almost always hold me down
You could see through everything
I said I was falling and you said not to fall on you
I've bitten every finger 'til it bleed

Wishing that you loved me to
Wishing that you loved me to
Wishing that

When I kissed you, you would almost always kiss me back
But I could tell your mind was with someone else
Oh my hands are folded neatly on my lap
And I am picturing your body as I ask myself

If you loved me to
Wishing that you loved me to
Wishing that

Listen to my nervous laughter
Sunken deep inside my heart
My lips are dry, I'm teary eyed for you my love
Harken all you fallen angels, help me find a place to rest
My head is pounding here beneath the weight of this
I'm wishing that
And you know me, oh you know me more than anyone

When I hear your voice everything I've done disappears from memory
Oh my darling come and save me,
Tell me I'm the one your dreaming of
Tell me that you love me to

Wishing that you loved me to
Wishing that you loved me to
Wishing that you loved me to
Wishing that you loved me to
Wishing that, I'm wishing that, wishing that, wishing that
You loved me to

When I cry I close my eyes
And every tear falls down inside
And I pray with all my might
That I will find my heart in someone's arms
When I cry, cry

When I cry, when I am sad
I think of every awful thing I ever did
Oh, when I cry, there is no love
No there is nothing that can comfort me enough
When I cry, cry, cry

All the salt inside my body ruins
Everyone I come close to
My hands are barely holdin' up my head

I am so tired of lookin' at my feet
All the secrets that I keep
My heart is barely hangin' by a thread
Hangin' by a thread

Oh, look at me, at all I've done
I've lost so many things that I so dearly loved
I lost my soul, I lost my pride
Oh, I lost any hope of having a sweet life
So I cry, cry, cry

All salt inside my body ruins
Everyone I come close to
My hands are barely holdin' up my head

I am so tired of lookin' at my feet
All the secrets that I keep
My heart is barely hangin' by a thread
Hangin' by a thread

I miss you all
I wish I was with you now
I wish I was
