If you could look
inside my life
And use my eyes
would you pity me
Would you see
the desperate nights
And all the lies that brought me
to my knees
I keep thinking
that I have to make you fall
The way I fell from your betrayal
to bring me peace of mind
I will let you move along
just walk away
And wear a cape
like you're some hero
I can't hear love
cause we're at war
And revenge is so loud
and the drums are so proud
But oh I'm in a cage
and I hear mercy say
I'm here now
And it's the only way out
I can't hear love
cause we're at war
But revenge is so loud
and the drums are so proud
But I'm still in a cage
and I hear mercy say now
It's the only way out
I used to hear my father say
Counterplay ends in defeat
And I said I'd never be that way
Tried to make you pay
cause it would cost me
But you owe me so much
more than what you gave to this
I guess every story twists
People tell me let it go
oh and forget
I can't hear love
cause we're at war
And revenge is so loud
and the drums are so proud
But oh I'm in a cage
and I hear mercy say
I'm here now
And it's the only way out
I can't hear love
cause we're at war
But revenge is so loud
and the drums are so proud
But I'm still in a cage
and I hear mercy say now
It's the only way
Mercy's the only way out
Mercy gave me my way out
