Lyrics
Mercy Is Calling
Music & Lyrics: Allen Wentz
Time is of the essence
It?s breathing down your neck
Deadlines? nearing
Neural net is melting
Synapse torn apart
The ache is searing
Then you wail, and you cry
You throw both hands up in the air and wonder why
Then you bleed, and you scream
And call to all the kings and queens
After all your effort
No progress has been made
The fire?s still raging
Numbness in the fingers, deafness in the ears
While your beeper?s paging
Then you twist, then you turn
And wormwood and the gall begin to burn
Then you shake, then you sweat
You?re at the place that you won?t soon forget
Mercy Is Callin?
Mercy Is Free
Mercy Is Callin?
Have Mercy On Me
