Mercy Mercy

I was wallowing
In a pit of snakes
They come crawling
Up around my legs
Now I despise
Them but I know
If they hypnotize me
Down down I go
Then I say Lord
Have mercy on me
I say Lord
Have mercy
Love to fly
In a purple haze
Believe lies
Just to stay faced
But when I crash
On solid ground
Then I go spat!!
And my up comes down
Then I say Lord
Have mercy on me
I say Lord
Have mercy
Complete
Forgiving
Chastening
Embracing
Love to go far
On my guitar
Love when she sings
Love when she stings
But if I bow
Down to her notes
When death comes 'round
That's all she wrote
Then I say Lord
Have mercy on me
I say Lord
Have mercy
Complete
Forgiving
Chastening
Embracing
Unearned
Undeserved
A total work
