At the Mercy lyrics

At the mercy, at the mercy

At the mercy of a busy road

Who can handle such a heavy load?

At the mercy, at the mercy

At the mercy of a busy day

We can think of nothing more to say

If you show me love, I won't refuse

I know you'd never make me choose

Between the love I've got and the love I'd lose

Sometimes I'd rather run and hide

Than stay and face the fear inside

At the mercy, at the mercy

At the mercy of a busy day

Who can bear to turn their head away?

At the mercy, at the mercy

At the mercy of a busy road

We can watch the universe explode

If you take me up, I won't say no

I guess you'd rather see me grow

Into a better man than the one you know

Sometimes my head is hanging low

It's time to get on with the show

At the mercy, at the mercy

At the mercy of a busy day

I can think of nothing more to say
