Song Lyrics

"On the Side of Mercy"

by Christopher Ames
Album: Journeyman

It's like looking in a mirror
But the glass is warped and cracked
Yea, that's the world that we live in

It's like trying to sing a song
'Cause the people want to dance
But none of them are listening

CHORUS
If I'm gonna fail
If I'm gonna freeze
If life's gonna bring me to my knees
If I get confused
Not sure what I see
At least let me err
On the side of mercy

It's like living at Ground Zero
Always got out best clothes on
It just doesn't go together
It's like being half awakened
To try and tell my wife a dream
I just can't explain it to her

CHORUS

Here we know in part, yet we feel all the pain
Trusting what is unseen, believing

CHORUS

=====
(Christopher Ames)
