No Mercy

[blister]

Pull me down under the water
I wanna fight to breathe
Lay me on a bed of roses
And push down til' I bleed
I'm sure of my virtues
I'm worth being abused

Light me up like a flame
And burn me to the ground
Break the skin a little more
I know that you know how
But you never want to
Why are you so cruel?

Show me no mercy
I want you to love
I want to feel it all
Show me no mercy
You should've been sorry
When I all I want is more
If you keep loving me up kill me
You gotta make it hurt
Don't show me no mercy
Don't take it easy
On me

Take me to a happy place
And bury me alive
Resurrect me like I'm useless
Kiss me when I die
I know that you love me
So why won't you show me?

Show me no mercy
I want you to love
I want to feel it all
Show me no mercy
You should've been sorry
When I all I want is more
If you keep loving me up kill me
You gotta make it hurt
Don't show me no mercy
Don't take it easy
On me

Don't take it easy on me
Don't take it easy
Don't take it easy
Don't take it easy on me!

Show me no mercy
I want you to love
I want to feel it all
Show me no mercy
You should've been sorry
When I all I want is more
If you keep loving me up kill me
You gotta make it hurt
Don't show me no mercy
Don't take it easy
On me

Don't take it easy, on me.

Holy sh*t, this song.... I don't even know.
I think the lyrics on the chorus are a little different. (But if you were doing it all by ear? Dayum. Nice job!) According to the liner notes it's
Show me no mercy
I want you to hurt me
I wanna feel it all
Show me no mercy
You shouldn't be sorry
When all I want is more
If you keep loving me
You'll kill me
You gotta a make it hurt
Don't show me no mercy
Don't take it easy...
On me

Two more:
I'm true to my virtues
and
Resurrect me like I'm Jesus

Really really nicely done on these lyrics though.

[rapscallion]

No, the liner notes are wrong again. It is definitely "i want you to love me" on the chorus. Sorry

[rapscallion]

Anyone want to toss in their two cents on the liner note version "I want you to hurt me" and Shim singing "I want you to love me?" Which came first? Why the change? Is it to make it sound less like abuse and more "Fifty Shades of Grey"?

I love this song!
its my favorite of the album and its not even an official release, well, it is, but its a bonus track, I really hope they will play it live in Europe.

I actually talked about this song with a friend and I said I think Shim has an S&M relationship with all these lyrics recently
(not judging!)

I really wish they could get this song on the Fifty Shades soundtrack....

I think these books are lame but if SP will be on the soundtrack they will reach new people so I can't say its a bad idea

[Cora]

Kinda my thought. I tried reading them but got bored....

[Cassie]

This still remains one of my favorite songs off of the album. Which saddens me since it technically WASN'T.

First time reading this thread and I'm laughing because initially I took it as the writer just wanting to be physically loved deeper or more passionately I guess, but now haha..... Reading these posts makes me wonder about the darker implications Who knows ? !
