You live for times of solace 
Within a sign there's a promise 
Don't lose all faith cause 
You shake at night it's in 
The art of the process 
In another rhyme beyond this place 
The healing's fast enough... 
Done a thousand times a thousand ways 
Until you've had enough 

...It's mercy you're asking for 
Cheating life by taking more 
It's mercy you're asking for 
Take my life or give me more... 

The loss of prize possessions 
To cure the mind's obsession 
Could trade your soul for that 
Normal life elite to all objections... 
See beyond all tears and broken years 
Your senses giving up 
Lose all confidence at your expense 
Your courage swallowed up
