U2 – Mercy lyrics
I was drinking some wine
And it turned to blood
What's the use of religion
If you're only good

I know I'm weed killer, honey
And you're sugar
If you're the prosecution
I get away with murder

You're gravity searching for the ground
I'm silence searching for a sound

Your heart is aching
Your heart is my home
It's fascinating
I know I'll never be alone

You're gonna kill me and I wanna die
We were meant for each other, you and I
Souls allowed to love
And there's nowhere else to turn

You're not sorry, you're not gonna cry
You put the blue back in my eye
It's just us
Because, because, because we can
We must

If you're hunger, baby let me feed it
If your heart is full, baby let me bleed it
And happiness is for those who don't really need it
You love me too much

You wanna kill me and I wanna die
We're a perfect match, you and I
Slaves without the drug
And there's no one else to trust

I'm not sorry, you're not gonna cry
You put the blue back in my eye
It's just us
Because, because, because we can
We must

I'm gonna kill me and I wanna die
We were meant for each other, you and I
Souls allowed to trust
And there's no one left to trust

I'm not sorry, you're not gonna cry
You put the blue back in my eye
It's just us
Because, because, because we can
We must
Because, because, because we can
We must
Because, because, because we can
We must
