Mercia

Despite all my forms

In spite of my warmth

I hear whispers of someone else

And their grip is merciless on me

So come and take it from me

You won't

Mercy may fall

Yet this abyss that you've woven is deep

I sharpen my teeth

I couldn't face you alone

I'd sacrifice my life

If my body could melt your ice

But I couldn't face you alone

In death, would I make you see

That your pain ruminates in me?

Is that why you couldn't face it alone?

Ooh, woah

So I sank

To disappear

Despite all your vaults

In spite, they distort

Into sketches of something else

Yet their grip is merciless on me

Please come and take them from me

You won't

Our bound malice will fall into

This abyss that you've woven, so deep

So I sharpen my teeth

Oh!

I could go insane now (now, now, now)

I claim your haven dissolves away

Still I stay enamoured, yet pushed away

If it means I climb up your walls

If I'm to breathe in your spores

I won't lose

How would I lose to you?

But still, I couldn't face you alone

I'd sacrifice my life

If my body could melt your ice

But I couldn't face you alone

Ooh

In death, would I make you see

That your pain ruminates in me?

Is that why I couldn't face you alone?

Oh

How could I face you alone?

When your wraith's torment remains

So I sank

Hidden deep beneath your spectre

I can show you no mercy

Oh!
