| Life has been tough recently
|
| Feels like your heartbeat’s in retreat
|
| You try to break the curse
|
| But it only makes it worse
|
| You look to the skies and you cry
|
| Somebody have mercy on me
|
| Somebody have mercy on me
|
| I’m lost, I can’t see
|
| Somebody have mercy on me
|
| (Who you are is who you are)
|
| (Who you are is who you are)
|
| (Who you are is who you are)
|
| (Who you are is who you are)
|
| You go to the priest and he turns you away
|
| You go to the doctor and he tells you to pray
|
| Is this a dream of the world at its worst?
|
| You step outside and you cry
|
| Somebody have mercy on me, ooh
|
| Somebody have mercy on me
|
| I’m lost, I can’t see
|
| Somebody have mercy on me, ooh
|
| Somebody have mercy on me
|
| Straight up to dinner
|
| And you’re on the phone again
|
| Waiting for the car to pull up outside
|
| Inside your head
|
| There is a strange voice singing
|
| You feel as if it’s been there all your life
|
| But you hear it for the first time tonight
|
| Somebody have mercy on me, ooh
|
| Somebody have mercy on me
|
| Yeah, I’m lost, I can’t see
|
| Somebody have mercy on me, ooh
|
| You go to the priest but he turns you away
|
| You say — Somebody have mercy on me
|
| Yeah and you go to the doctor but he
|
| Tells you to pray, you say
|
| Somebody have mercy on me
|
| Ooooh
|
| Somebody have mercy on me |
