Well, the streets have started burning
There's trouble in the towns
Guess the devil loves his playground
That's for sure
I too often see the world through a veil of tears
Well, to hell with my immunity
Gonna hold you close
'Til the shadows disappear
ย
(Rivers of mercy, yeah)
ย
If by magic, you mean the ocean
ย
If by tragic, you mean the end
ย
We weren't wrong, we were just hungry
For manna from Heaven
And come and drown me in the infinite sea
ย
Drop me in rivers of mercy, yeah
Dare I imagine some faith and understanding?
Drop me in rivers of mercy, yeah
Bring out the dead tonight
And bathe them in your sacred light to
Wash away the pain
Save me from the shadows, yeah
Cry like a siren, the light on my horizon
Drop me in rivers of mercy, yeah
ย
Show me mercy, miracle waters
ย
Make me golden, part of the dream
ย
We got stung, we were just lovers
Born of temptation
Slow down, river, and float me upstream
Drop me in rivers of mercy, yeah
Dare I imagine some faith and understanding?
Drop me in rivers of mercy, yeah
Bring out the dead tonight
And bathe them in your sacred light to
Wash away the pain
Save me from the shadows, yeah
Cry like a siren, the light on my horizon
Drop me in rivers of mercy, yeah
ย
Spinning upside down
In the wake of mighty waves
See the anger of the world
When feelings run high
When feelings are so raw
We will give in to the night
Drop me in rivers of mercy, yeah
Dare I imagine some faith and understanding?
Drop me in rivers of mercy, yeah
Bring out the dead tonight
And bathe them in your sacred light to
Wash away the pain
Save me from the shadows, yeah
Cry like a siren, the light on my horizon
Drop me in rivers of mercy, yeah
