Cry Mercy
/Misery uninvited comes, cry mercy
It’s too personal to share, unworthy
A curtain drops, then comes darkness
Any light that gets through brings harshness
An act to play must hide away
Let no one know you feel this way
The push the pull only makes it worse
Those who care most try hardest to coerce
Makes you want to scream, cry mercy
From the depths you just don’t care
Alone is comfort an answer to prayer
Until it isn’t, your skin to crawl
Repetition is all you know
It’s like a drug, addiction to grow
Up then down, rare the days level come
From the well fresh water take some
Far away please to stay, controversy
Misery uninvited comes, cry mercy
