My heart is black and my lips are blue
I called out your name but you didn't hear it did you
Heaven have mercy now
Lord have mercy now
Death have mercy now on me
My days are dark and my hours are long
The curtain's pulled in here I belong
Heaven have mercy now
Lord have mercy now
Death have mercy now on me
And loving you has turned into a deathwish
And there is no way out except for this
And without you I'm living on a deathwish
Cause there is no way out except for this
My hair is damp and my face is wide
Your scent still lingers and the dust it falls in dull light
Heaven have mercy now
Lord have mercy now
Death have mercy now on me
My speech is stuck and my touch is cold
My young bones broke and I feel so old
Heaven have mercy now
Lord have mercy now
Death have mercy now on me
And loving you has turned into a deathwish
And there is no way out except for this
Without you I'm living on a deathwish
Cause there is no way out except for this
Oh death have mercy
Oh death have mercy
Oh death have mercy
Just spare me
And loving you has turned into a deathwish
And there is no way out except for this
And without you I'm living on a deathwish
Cause there is no way out except for this
I pray death have mercy
