No Mercy in Me

(Verse 1)

You carved your name into my spine

Called it justice, called it time

Said I’d thank you in the end

For the weight you made me bend

I learned your rules, I learned your game

How to bleed without the shame

Every promise you betrayed

Left a blade I couldn’t shake

(Pre-Chorus)

I kept score when you forgot

Every cut, every thought

I don’t scream, I don’t plead

I just wait, I just breathe

(Chorus)

There’s no mercy in me

Not tonight

I buried the boy you tried to break

Now I sharpen what survived

You don’t get my forgiveness

You don’t get my peace

You made a war out of my name

Now there’s no mercy in me

(Verse 2)

You mistook my quiet for fear

Thought I’d rot where you left me here

But silence is a loaded gun

And I’ve been counting down to one

Every scar you left behind

Is a reason, not a crime

I don’t need to raise my voice

You already made my choice

(Pre-Chorus)

I don’t need a holy sign

I don’t need the moral high

You drew first, crossed the line

Now I’m done being kind

(Chorus)

There’s no mercy in me

Not tonight

I buried the boy you tried to break

Now I sharpen what survived

You don’t get my forgiveness

You don’t get my peace

You made a war out of my name

Now there’s no mercy in me

(Bridge)

Say I’m wrong, say I’ve changed

Say I look just like the pain

But you don’t get to burn my house

Then cry when I light the flames

I’m not asking to be saved

I’m not here to be redeemed

You taught me how this ends

Now watch me finish what you started in me

(Break)

I remember everything

(Final Chorus)

There’s no mercy in me

No disguise

Every ghost you left alive

Is standing by my side

You can beg, you can bleed

You can pray to be free

But you forged this monster carefully

There’s no mercy in me
