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 curtains put in here, I belong
Heaven have mercy now
Lord have mercy now
Death have mercy now on me

And loving you has turn 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 in the dust of a dozen door light
Heaven have mercy now
Lord have mercy now
Death have mercy now on me

My speeches stood and my touch is cold
My arm once broken, I feel so old
Heaven have mercy now
Lord have mercy now
Death have mercy now on me

And loving you has turn 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 ...

Loving you has turn 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
