"Mercy" lyrics

"Mercy"

Retrace your steps
Try to remember
Where we went wrong
Lingering feelings of love fade
We all become cold
Losing faith in each other
Losing faith in ourselves

Can't you see?
This is your family
Humanity
We're all the same
Can't you see?
The lack of empathy

What kind of world do we live in?
We're all alive but nobody is living
Are you happy now?
Are you listening?
We all want change, but nobody is willing

Reinvent the way that we live
I'm tired of losing my way
We only harbour the emotion we feel
In a world conditioned by pain
Violence is in our nature
And I fear things will never change

Can't you see?
This is your family
Humanity
We're all the same
Can't you see?
The lack of empathy

What stands between you and me
What will we mean?
Love is all we need

Lifeless
Bound by our self concern
Lifeless
When the fuck will we learn?
