Mercy

Foolish me maybe
To lose ourselves in these dreams constantly
I'm shaking in my sleep
I wish I wouldn't break so easily
I'm making plans
I'm leaving tonight
Try to find a better way
Better than the roads
I wanted to go down yesterday
Lots of things we wanna do before we die
Are keeping us alive
We rest on what we've done before
These clocks are now misleading
And I've got no choice for leaving you behind
So don't think of me anymore
My wide eyes clouded me
I wondered 'cause I lost my company
You're too young and naive
So when I go I'd do so quietly
Know it seems I'm being selfish
And that's partially the truth
Oh ooh, but you've treated me well
And I don't wanna tell it all to you
I wish that I could turn back time
And change my words to make you change your mind
I tried to tell you once before
These clocks are now misleading
And I've got no choice for leaving you behind
So don't think of me anymore
These clocks are now misleading
Think of places sea is leaving me to die
So don't think of me anymore
