at the mercy, at the mercy
at the mercy of a busy road,
who can handle such a heavy load?

at the mercy, at the mercy
at the mercy of a busy day,
we can think of nothing more to say

if you show me love, i won´t refuse
i know you´d never make me choose
between the love i´ve got and the love i´d lose

sometimes i´d rather run and hide,
then stay and face the fear inside

at the mercy, at the mercy
at the mercy of a busy day,
who can bear to turn their head away?

at the mercy, at the mercy
at the mercy of a busy road
we can watch the universe explode

if you take me up, i won´t say no
i guess you´d rather see me grow
into a better man than the one you know

sometimes my head is hanging low
it´s time to get on with the show

at the mercy, at the mercy
at the mercy of a busy day
i can think of nothing more to say
