I've been down at your mercy
Wishing I was dead instead
Couldn't handle the heartbreak
That you hung over my head

To tell you the truth I can't erase this
I try to let loose but can't escape it
So let me down, let me down, let me down easy
Don't wanna see you, you know I hate this
So I try to refuse, you never take it
So tear me down, tear me down, tear me down leave me

I've been down at your mercy
Wishing I was dead instead
Couldn't handle the heartbreak
That you hung over my head

I've been getting the feeling
At 3 in the morning
That you never even cared

I've been down at your mercy
Wishing I was dead instead

I can't pretend that it's okay
You act like I'm a wreck
Wish I knew how to get away
From you inside my head

I miss the good old days where
Things were only down from there
There's no return from where we are
So let me say my prayers

I've been down at your mercy
Wishing I was dead instead
Couldn't handle the heartbreak
That you hung over my head

I've been getting the feeling
At 3 in the morning
That you never even cared

I've been down at your mercy
Wishing I was dead instead

As I fall down to stay
We're just one step away
I know you'll never change
There's nothing left to say

I've been down at your mercy
Wishing I was dead instead
Couldn't handle the heartbreak
That you hung over my head

I've been getting the feeling
At 3 in the morning
That you never even cared

I've been down at your mercy
Wishing I was dead instead
