i walked outside there was nowhere to repent
been gone too long with darkest intent
i don’t know how
i don’t know how

maybe here i will make my last stand
i’m taken hostage there are no demands
i don’t know how
i don’t know how

it wasn’t peace just a ceasefire
we’re burning love down, down to desire
i don’t know how
i don’t know how

to let you go

if you disappeared in an endless night
mercy
but you’ll signal again just to spite
mercy

end this hope once and for all
let me forget how to crawl
blindfolded against the wall
mercy

have mercy, have mercy, on me
have mercy, have mercy, on me
have mercy, have mercy, on me
have mercy, have mercy, on me

break all the mirrors
mercy
don’t come any nearer
mercy

there have been so many names
give up on trying to blame
take the pictures from the frames
mercy

have mercy, have mercy, on me
have mercy, have mercy, on me
have mercy, have mercy, on me
have mercy, have mercy, on me

thank you for not sitting too near
how can something so dark make it all so clear
they’re all waiting for you
go on they’re waiting for you

part of me knows it’s wrong
maybe it’s just wrong for part of me
part of me knows it’s wrong
maybe it’s just wrong for part of me

when your north wind blows down again
will i give up this foolish campaign
i was waiting for you
did you know i was waiting for you

part of me knows it’s wrong
maybe it’s just wrong for part of me
part of me knows it’s wrong
maybe it’s just wrong for part of me

a threat, liberation, settling a score
the lies you don’t believe anymore
what happened to your esprit de corps
this is the war to start a hundred more

one more hill, one more home
one more kill and time to atone
the sky lights up and the city prays
freedom is won this way

no cameras on you when you return
can’t cause too much concern
but you’re here now a simple job to do
it’ll never end, but you’ll see it through

one more hill, one more home
one more kill and time to atone
the sky lights up and the city prays
freedom is won this way

and the bones in the street must be the freest of all
no fear of you behind crumbled walls
no higher love to pursue
sometimes you wish it was you

one more hill, one more home
one more kill and time to atone
the sky lights up and the city prays
freedom is won this way

how did i end up here
how did i end up here

these are not my arms, this is not my blood, these are not my bones
how did i end up here
this is not my cross, these are not my fears, these are not my tears
how did i end up here

how did i end up here
how did i end up here

this is not my pain, this is not my bed, this is not my life
this is not my rage, this is not my hate, this is not my hurt
how did i end up here

but this is my soul, and this is my spirit, and this is my hope
that’s how i’ll leave here
this is my faith, this is my courage, this is my strength
that’s how i’ll leave here

cry wolf, cry all night
with darkened dreams that you set alight
i know, i know

burrow down deep inside
the cold dirt laughed but at least you tried
i know, i know
i know, i know

i know how you’ll get free
carried on my back, on my back
i know how you’ll get free
dancing on my back, on my back

dirty hands, i planted seeds
you sang to weeds, ate the hand that feeds you
i know, i know

story time, it was all untrue
a lie for you, and one for me too
i know, i know
i know, i know

i know how you’ll get free
carried on my back, on my back
i know how you’ll get free
dancing on my back, on my back

cry wolf, cry all night
with darkened dreams that you set alight
i know, i know
i know
