Mercy Lyrics

Ari Hest

I met a man responsible
For an unforgivable crime
We were at a bar and he said to me
IÂ'm out, IÂ've done my time

But you know I will always be begging for mercy

A few seats down at the corner of the bar
Sat a mother of two
She said sheÂ'd given up her babies for
To start her life anew
All that weÂ've done we hang on to

All that weÂ've done we belong to
All that weÂ've done carries on

Now I feel like the lucky one
Unlike how I felt before
Cause thankfully what IÂ've done wrong,
The guilt I can ignore

You know I wonÂ't be beggin for
I wonÂ't be asking for
I wonÂ't be desperate for mercy

All that weÂ've done carries on
