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.
Has it begun?
Has the games already started?
Swallowing the Sun
Knowing that you will do it again
For certain
Letting me build a safe spot
Letting me build a place for us to be
Each others company
Letting me build strength
Build it, build it, build 'till I break
I don't mind
It's something that I do for the fun of it
I enjoy being the fool
Mess me up, be cruel
Something that I do for the fun of it
Make me beg, make me beg
But don't ever show me no mercy
Show me no mercy
It's something that I do for the fun of it
I enjoy being the fool
Mess me up, be cruel
Something that I do for the fun of it
Make me beg, make me beg
Don't ever show me no mercy
Will you play by the rules?
Will you try to steal shit from my garden?
Grieving for the loss
Then you'll be the boss
And you will always leave me starving
Letting me build a safe spot
Letting me build a place for us to be
Each others company
Letting me build strength
Build it, build it, build 'till I break
I don't mind
It's something that I do for the fun of it
I enjoy being the fool
Mess me up, be cruel
Something that I do for the fun of it
Make me beg, make me beg
But don't ever show me no mercy
Show me no mercy
It's something that I do for the fun of it
I enjoy being the fool
Mess me up, be cruel
Something that I do for the fun of it
Make me beg, make me beg
Don't ever show me no mercy
Letting me be for myself
For myself, for myself, ah
Letting me be for myself
For myself, ah
(Show me no mercy)
It's something that I do for the fun of it
I enjoy being the fool
Mess me up, be cruel
It's something that I do for the fun of it
Make me beg, make me beg
But don't ever show me no mercy
Show me no mercy
