Have Mercy

by: Dakota Jones


Sweet thing
A new season, same old shit it brings
My hair tied up like it's bricks and strings
We waste our time with less fruitful flings
You shut the door, I locked it tight
Turned out the lights, no fun tonight
Removed your hands, no fun tonight
You said, "goodnight"
I said, "alright, goodnight"

Before it goes away
Before we write off all the real things we say
Before I call you at the end of the day
Touch erases the tantrums from the love we made

Have mercy on me

Star shine
My main affliction’s this one track mind
Pick your addictions, cause I got mine
Your main attractions are my pastimes
Who's the one to turn the lights on
At the wrong time?
Twelve PM I'm swerving dashed lines
Cheers to swigging pints in the daytime
Part your lips, but don’t open your eyes

Before it goes away
Before we write off all the real things we say
Before I call you at the end of the day
Don't push it away, don't push it away
Before it goes away
Before we write off all the real things we say
Before I call you at the end of the day
Don't push it away
I'm finger-painting in the mess we made

Have mercy on me
Have mercy on me
Have mercy on me

Have mercy on me, yeah
Have mercy on me, yeah
Have mercy on me, yeah
Have mercy on me, yeah

Star shine, you are mine

Don't let the boat rock unless we both ride

Sunrise, you're so fine

Don't let the boat rock unless we both ride

Wild child, you are mine

Don’t let the boat rock unless we both ride

Star shine, you are mine

Don’t let the boat rock unless we both ride
