Have Mercy – Good Christian Man lyrics
I wrote down every single name
Of all the people that I've hurt
And watched it burn
I laid my face against the pulpit
Confessed to myself all the lessons I had learned
I was fair and I was stern
They wrote me off
They wrote me a letter saying
You're as good as gone
But I want it bad
To be loved and feel hated still
Don't give up, there's a void you fill
To be loved and feel hated we've got it wrong
We want to feel safe but we'll never belong
I regret to tell myself
That it's not the person that I should become
So I'll drink wine and think it's fine
I'm comfortable with my limbs going numb
I'm back where I started from
They wrote me off
They wrote me a letter saying
You're as good as gone
But I want it bad
To be loved and feel hated still
Don't give up, there's a void you fill
To be loved and feel hated we've got it wrong
We want to feel safe but we'll never belong
It was always the plan
Become a good Christian man
They can't learn to respect my happiness
It was always the plan
To be loved and feel hated still
Don't give up, there's a void you fill
To be loved and feel hated still
Don't give up, there's a void you fill
To be loved and feel hated we've got it wrong
We want to feel safe but we'll never belong
Of all the people that I've hurt
And watched it burn
I laid my face against the pulpit
Confessed to myself all the lessons I had learned
I was fair and I was stern
They wrote me off
They wrote me a letter saying
You're as good as gone
But I want it bad
To be loved and feel hated still
Don't give up, there's a void you fill
To be loved and feel hated we've got it wrong
We want to feel safe but we'll never belong
I regret to tell myself
That it's not the person that I should become
So I'll drink wine and think it's fine
I'm comfortable with my limbs going numb
I'm back where I started from
They wrote me off
They wrote me a letter saying
You're as good as gone
But I want it bad
To be loved and feel hated still
Don't give up, there's a void you fill
To be loved and feel hated we've got it wrong
We want to feel safe but we'll never belong
It was always the plan
Become a good Christian man
They can't learn to respect my happiness
It was always the plan
To be loved and feel hated still
Don't give up, there's a void you fill
To be loved and feel hated still
Don't give up, there's a void you fill
To be loved and feel hated we've got it wrong
We want to feel safe but we'll never belong
