Nicolas Vanguard - Mercy On Me

Dust and breath.
This life you gave me
I've been breaking more than i meant
Every secret that
I buried comes to haunt me once again
All my promises were shaken
Like a bottle in my hand
Every time my courage failed me, still
You called a broken man
When the stars
Forget to shine.
When the heavens lose their flame
When my final breath is gone and
I stand before your throne
Not by anything
I've done
I've been stumbling.
I've been blind
Not by anything
I've done
Yet you held me through
The fire
I taste the easy pleasures.
Watch them
Bleed like cheap red wine
Woke up shaking in the ashes with my pride and hope behind now
I stand with empty pockets
But this hollow has grown still
I'm reaching through the heartbreak
For the love
I've never known
If you ask me what
I've
Carried, I'll confess it
At your feet
Every jealous crooked motive
Every wound I COULDN'T TREAT.
When I
Drowned in my own silence.
When
My song came to an end.
If my
Name fades into nothing, let me fall
Into your hand
When the stars
Forget to shine.
When the heavens lose
Their flame
When my final breath is gone and
I stand before your throne
Not by anything
I've done
I've been lost and out of
Not by anything
I've done
Still your mercy pull me through
Have mercy on me
I am breaking as
I speak
Have mercy on me
Every scar and every plea
Have mercy
On me
