"Mercy" lyrics

Just give me a moment
Just to fall in your arms
So you can hold me
Before I fall apart
Oh, just give me a second
One last dance in the dark
'Cause I know what comes after
And it's breaking my heart

Show me some mercy
Oh, say it to my face
Say you don't want me, need me
Tell me you hate me, that this was all a mistake
We had a prelude
So it's a bad dance
Show me some mercy
Oh, say it to my face

Just give me a moment
Away from it all
One more chance to enjoy
Call it our curtain call
Oh, just give me a second
No, just walk out the door
Even if I mean nothing to it
I would spend something more

Give me some mercy
Oh, say it to my face
Say you don't want me, need me
Tell me you hate me, that this was all a mistake
'Cause we had a prelude
So it's a bad dance
Show me some mercy
Go on, say it to my face

And what is there to say
As we take our final bow
I'm just testing, begging, pleading

Show me some mercy
Oh, say it to my face
Say you don't want me, need me
Tell me you hate me, that this was all a mistake
