Lyrics
Mercy
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
We have slaughtered
If the garden of beauty
Digging graves instead of planting
Mercy for the crucified
A bitter justice
Begging eternity for love
We´re nothing
We´re everything
I am nothing
Yet I am everybody
We´re nothing
And yet we are
Wisdom lights up life´s road
I know you
