Show a Little Mercy

An old cathedral painted black
With empty pews go spread the news
Today's the day the pastor died
And boy thank you for listening
But I'm a sinner and you're a sinner
Can you explain to me why we survive?

Oooo I think I'm losing my cool about it
Won't get back home to December this time
I feel like losing my mind
I doubt it that I'll get home to December this time

A courtroom tiled in only white
A mob surrounds, the killer's found
Today's the day that bastard's tried
And judge thank you for punishing
But kill a killer and you're a killer
Can you explain to mе why he should die?

Wait I think we'rе losing our way about this
Should we really take an eye for an eye?
Ooo feel like we're losing control about this
Could we show a little mercy this time?

Can we show a little mercy?
Show a little mercy this time
Show a little mercy
And I know what goes round comes back around
A little mercy this time

(Pretty sure you're a sinner)
(Pretty sure you're a sinner)
(Pretty sure you kill a killer that means you become a killer)

Can we show a little mercy?
And I know what goes round comes back around
I'm a sinner, you're a sinner
Kill a killer, you're a killer, I'm a sin-

(Spoken: I'm too old to change)
