Death Have Mercy
[Chorus: Jake Blount]
Woah, Death, have mercy
Hah, Death, have mercy
Oh, Death, have mercy
Spare me over another year
[Pre-Chorus: Jake Blount]
If I was a flower in my bloom and
Make Death cut me down so soon
[Chorus: Jake Blount]
Oh, Death, have mercy
Hah, Death, have mercy
Oh, Death, have mercy
Spare me over another year
[Verse 1: Demeanor]
Fallen in you like I resolve something new
Like I belong in dispute
Proof in the pudding, balancе in my footin'
I stood where I could, now I'm fallin' for you
Coulda sawed mе in two pieces
Heart on my sleeve and the blood coulda drew leeches
You a fantasy, and one I plan to keep
Drawing lines in the sand that'll reach between two beaches
I'm sure of it, walking hand in hand
Makin' a plan to go and get to the core of it
My heart's iron-solid, you make ore of it
My entire mind and body for sure toughened
You gotta love it
Have mercy on me, I don't know more's coming
I can't force it, you lord above it
Praise you, I of course covet
Implore you to bring another morning, I'm mourning
Those who never knew you, nor them
Still wishing you'd ignore them
Hoping I'd be more important
Your love I need more than portions, blood coursin'
I feel it morph, and I'm wonderin'
[Pre-Chorus: Jake Blount]
Oh, what is this that I can't see
Cold icy hands all over me
[Chorus: Jake Blount]
Oh, Death, have mercy
Hah, Death, have mercy
Oh, Death, have mercy
Spare me over another year
[Verse 2: Demeanor]
Could I live for you 'til your list gets 'spanded?
I'm again born new, could I begin adorned, too?
I know many get lost, I feel I'm torn, too
I know you pull strings, I feel I'm more in tune
Now that it's my turn
This is between us, feel like my life's curse
Feelings come out in the dark, limited spark, I know that light work
Wool over eyes, pull it apart
Tell me where the infinite start
End in a split second
Mercy on my soul, no I can't quite catch it
Though it's for sure definite
And you voicing your name is the most deafening
[Pre-Chorus: Jake Blount]
Oh, this is the way that death begins it
Close your eyes and stretch your limbs
[Chorus: Jake Blount]
Oh, Death, have mercy
Hah, Death, have mercy
Oh, Death, have mercy
Spare me over another year
[Outro]
Just spare me over another year
