lyrics

You're like a knight in armour
Fighting a battle of one
And every night it gets harder
To wait for the sun

I know you feel alone
Against a current that's strong
Between a rock and a stone
No one to pull you along

You wanna feel alright
You wanna see that light shining again
You wanna feel alright

Show mercy to yourself
All I ever wanted to say to someone else

Pray to the stars from a barstool
Filling your tank from a glass
You bottle it up that's what you do
So nobody can ask

You wanna feel alright
You wanna see that light shining again
You wanna feel alright

Show mercy to yourself
All I ever wanted to say to someone else

You don't have to go and break your back
I got you, I got you
Even if you fall right off the track I got you

Show mercy to yourself
All I ever wanted to say to someone else
Show mercy to yourself
