kennedy betts - mercy (confession) lyrics

mercy (confession)

we are kneeling at the rivers edge and tempting
all the steps to follow closer right behind
is it only when you feel a part is empty
that it’s gnawing at the corners of your mind (x2)

confession’s on the table
i gave into temptation
i cannot live a lie, a fable
put me on probation
i know sin is fatal
there is no evasion
of feeling this, it’s painful
eating at me, shameful
i know i can’t change it
i sinned again, i sinned again
i know it’s betrayal
contradiction in my veins
i’m a fool in april
i know i deserve the flames
lord please show me mercy
no excuse
but i’m not perfect
god of abraham is holy
i know i’m not worthy
i need your forgiveness
but i know i don’t deserve it
this was not an accident, i did it on purpose
i knew you were watching, but i went and did it anyway
did it for my skin, but my body decays anyway
i can hear satan whispering
i can hear serpents hissing and
i can hear demons listening
waiting for the moment that i become dissonant
we are kneeling at the rivers edge and tempting
all the steps to follow closer right behind
is it only when you feel a part is empty
that it’s gnawing at the corners of your mind (x2)

oooooh
ha ha (2)

how can i preach if i’m still eating the fruit
how can i teach if i’m not living in truth
how am i saved if i’m not living for you
how can i be whole when my soul’s broken in two
you don’t think i’m feeling this?
this is my experience
sin is very serious
wage is death, period
this is all real for me
it’s easy lyrically when i’ve got the fear in me
i really hope you’re hearing me
i’m fearing for my soul
i know i’m veering off the path
i know i lost control
and i know i’ll face the wrath
i know you don’t condone
i’m trying to do the math
of what i must uphold
me plus christ is bloodbath
that means letting go
i’m walking on a warpath
am i heading home
if i’m too dirty at the doormat
if you came condemning those
it’s a fiery forecast
that means no wedding robes
please expose my sins
and give me strength to turn
i’ve got darkness still within
and all the darkness burns
please guide me in your ways
help my faith stay firm
i don’t want to fall away
to the point of no return
i just need your grace
(i’m so sorry)
we are kneeling at the rivers edge and tempting
all the steps to follow closer right behind
is it only when you feel a part is empty
that it’s gnawing at the corners of your mind (x2)

oooooh
ha ha (2)

oooohhhhh
in the muddy water we’re falling
oooohhhhh
in the muddy water we’re crawling
hold me down
hold me now
sold me out
in the muddy waters we’re falling

i will ask you for mercy
i will come to you blind
what you’ll see is the worst me
not the last of my kind (x2)
