Birds Of Tokyo - Mercy Arms lyrics

[Verse 1] I can see coal machines, wires and tiny plugs Telling you to breathe on time, helping you hold a pulse If I could take away what's got you lying still under the chemicals Believe me I will try If you need me I'll be like a sentinel [Pre-Chorus] I can feel the frustration swim in your blood I can see you're still here, your heart won't give up (I keep the radio on, I keep the radio on) [Chorus] Everyday brings you closer to the grave (I keep the radio on, I keep the radio on) No more waiting for life to slip away (I keep the radio on, I keep the radio on) Stop with your deliberation Is this your return to mercy arms? [Verse 2] You're in a fight with time, it's pulling you limb from limb Trying to test all you've got, how much you want to live It sounded like you said something like I don't want to go there and fight Save yourself, even though you're not alone You must do this on your own, there's no-one else [Pre-Chorus] I can feel the frustration swim in your blood I can see you're still here, your heart won't give up (I keep the radio on, I keep the radio on) (I keep the radio on, I keep the radio on) (I keep the radio on, I keep the radio on) [Chorus] Everyday brings you closer to the grave (I keep the radio on, I keep the radio on) No more waiting for life to slip away (I keep the radio on, I keep the radio on) Stop with your deliberation Is this your return to mercy arms? (I keep the radio on, I keep the radio on) Is this your return to mercy arms? [Outro] The return to mercy arms The return to mercy arms The return to mercy arms The return to mercy arms I'll wait 'til you wake up I'll wait 'til you wake up I'll wait 'til you wake up
