What Mercy Means

Guess we all can say
Looking back on our lives
Parts of the story on the page
Are a sad, sad sight
It don't take too much
To come apart at the seams
Makes you learn to love
What mercy means

Mercy means at the heart of regret
God forgives and God forgets
Like being shackled in chains
Then finding you're free
Living again is what mercy means

I've seen those motorcades
A mile or two long
In the middle of the day
With the headlights on
Don't take too much
In thesе tragic scenes
To make you lеarn how to love
What mercy means

Mercy means at the heart of regret
God forgives and God forgets
Like being shackled in chains
Then finding you're free
Living again is what mercy means

There's a world out there
Saying stay in your grave
But grace and prayer
Roll stones away

Mercy means at the heart of regret
God forgives and God forgets
Like being shackled in chains
Then finding you're free
Living again is what mercy means

Mercy means at the heart of regret
God forgives and God forgets
Like being shackled in chains
Then finding you're free
Living again is what mercy means
Living again is what mercy means

Oh, yeah
That's what mercy means

(Living again, living again)
(Living again, living again)
I'm longing to live again
(Living again, living again)
Yes, I am
(Living again, living again)
That's what mercy means

(Living again, living again)
Yeah, yeah
(Living again, living again)
Oh, yes, I'm free
(Living again, living again)
I'm free
That's what mercy, mercy
(Living again, living again)
That's what mercy means...
