Point your finger at the bastard son
Feed my fire 'till I come undone
Broke my body, but you made me whole
Buried the child, but not my soul

Starved me so I ate your lies
Stuck your needles in my eyes

Chorus:
Mother Mercy, my faith in you is gone
Mother Mercy, I'm dying in your arms

I don't see the world like you
Taught to speak when I was spoken to
Kicked the chair out from under me
Till this day my wounds still bleed

Save your pity, save yourself
Make your peace with someone else

Mother Mercy, look unto your son
Mother Mercy, see what you have done

See what I've become
