"Mercy Killing Fields" lyrics

"Mercy Killing Fields"

The power of hope and grief with logic lodged in between
The actions may haunt you, hopeless machinations
Washed at the bank of indecision
Hung in the balance, no remission

We pang against the thought and call it mercy
Cut from a subjective cloth killing
Enter the gates a life in mock fields
Lives bravely fought on mercy killing fields

A fevered hole I've dug
Sanitized prayer rug
Sorrow becomes a drug
Sign off and pull the plug

We pang against the thought and call it mercy
Cut from a subjective cloth killing
Enter the gates a life in mock fields
Lives bravely fought on mercy killing fields

We pang against the thought and call it mercy
Cut from a subjective cloth killing
Enter the gates a life in mock fields
Lives bravely fought on mercy killing fields

Mercy killing fields

A sobering reminder that we're none the wiser
Almighty hallowed hands embrace
Mercy killing fields
