Mercy Lyrics by Nathan King (NZL)

Proof

2013

[Verse 1]
Lying awake
You're next to me
Keeping my breath matched to yours
In sympathy
[Verse 2]
It's the least I can do
After all I've done
But whenever I try to fix things
The words just don't come
[Pre-Chorus]
So I tie myself down
I'm dreaming of ways just to stop me
'Cause it won't be long 'til you've found
I am my own worst enemy
[Chorus]
'Cause I don't wanna be held responsible
For doing damage or destroying something beautiful
If you're an island, then I'm your refugee
I'm throwing myself at your mercy
[Verse 3]
It's quiet again
If you only knew
How much you mean to mе
And how much I go through
[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, I tie myself down
I'm drеaming of ways just to stop me
'Cause it won't be long 'til you've found
I am my own worst enemy
[Chorus]
'Cause I don't wanna be held responsible
For doing damage or destroying something beautiful
If you're an island, then I'm your refugee
I'm throwing myself at your mercy
'Cause I don't wanna be held responsible
[Bridge]
We're over our heads, but this love runs deep
I'd dive to the bottom for you
Some promises are made to keep
Yeah, I'm not just passing through
So don't let this olive branch get torn in two, in two
[Chorus]
'Cause I don't wanna be held responsible
For doing damage or destroying something beautiful
If you're an island, then I'm your refugee
I'm throwing myself at your mercy
[Chorus]
'Cause I don't wanna be held responsible
For doing damage or destroying something beautiful
If you're an island, then I'm your refugee
I'm throwing myself at your mercy
[Outro]
I'm at your mercy
