Mercy’s Shore (Live From the Woods)

Lyrics

[Verse 1] My arms are tired and weary These wounds are on full display And I've tried every door in the hallway There's just nowhere that I feel safe [Chorus] I see the light but never find the surface I don't know if I can swim no more White knuckles and wild horses One day we'll wash up on mercy's shore One day we'll wash up on mercy's shore [Post-Chorus] Ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh [Verse 2] Well, I'm lost in the waves that crush me They bring discovery where darkness hidеs Just over the ridge in front of you Anothеr mountain that you'll have to climb [Chorus] I see the light but never find the surface I don't know if I can swim no more White knuckles and wild horses One day we'll wash up on mercy's shore One day we'll wash up on mercy's shore [Post-Chorus] Oh, oh woah Oh, oh [Bridge] We're a child in the car asleep In the driveway at night Our mother's gonna slowly sneak Our bodies inside We can rest in the arms of trust There's no way we can say That we've earned our way into light All we have to do is stay [Chorus] I see the light but never find the surface I don't know if I can swim no more White knuckles and wild horses One day we'll wash up on mercy's shore One day we'll wash up on mercy's shore [Post-Chorus] Oh, oh woah Oh, oh Oh, oh woah Oh, oh [Refrain] Oh, oh woah Oh, oh [Outro] I've been battling a broken heart Everybody knows I'm torn apart Since I was eight years old and I thought That God was a girl in my school We can wind up on a sandy beach Breathing air that only death can reach And singing songs that only Heaven leaves It's okay with me God is wanting us to make-believe But knowing something is only a dream Like the absolutes and the in-betweens Are out of line, sometimes intertwined Behind a mind in lines and fights That only fools are still trying to fight
