Mercy Seat

When I' m in the Mercy Seat
I smile
And lay my weapons down
All I ask is for release
No matter what the cost
There' s only one way
To bring a new day
Apply the heat that gently turns
My sickness into health
But you can taste the fire for yourself
Yeah you can taste the fire for yourself
And when that blood begins to flow
There' s nowhere else to go
I feel complete in the Mercy Seat
So complete, in the Mercy Seat

So bind me to the Mercy Seat
And heal me
I promise not to flinch
And ring that bell as loud as you please
It can only make me well
There' s only one way
To bring a new day
Help me to recall I' m just a man
And that' s all I am
But you can taste the fire for yourself
Yeah you can taste the fire for yourself
And when that blood begins to flow
There' s nowhere else to go
I feel complete in the Mercy Seat
So complete, in the Mercy Seat
So complete, in the Mercy Seat
