Lyrics

Sidewalks baking in the summer sun
I was slipping on cool grass with the sprinklers on
Trading secrets and giving high fives
It was a good day to be young, be alive
Imagining every moment
We colored the world with our dreams
But life intervenes

With no mercy
No mercy?

Sirens echo through the neighborhood
People standing in the road trying not to look
Three blocks from the safest place I could be
They?re washing the blood from the street
Where she held her child for the last time
Begging from the pieces of her heart
Till he died in her arms

With no mercy
No mercy?

So maybe that?s why
You seek and I hide
Why I?m keeping secrets
On these perfect sunny days

The world is no safe place
It?s a human sacrifice
And I?ve learned to keep my distance
When I?m looking in your eyes
So be careful how you kiss me
What you promise me tonight
And just remember before you say goodbye

To have mercy
Have mercy?
