(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
