We cant be oblivious, we are not ignorant
Blood in our hearts, blood on our hands
We're human, we reason, we're breathing
Protecting the living, and dying, surviving, we're trying
To breathe in safety, come home safetly

Mercy screams its violent love
Justice and mercy
Justice and mercy
The depth of us created for
Justice and mercy
Justice and mercy
This is where they kiss

Life he sacrificed, someone who paid the price
Blood in our hearts, blood on our hands
W'ere crying, we're fighting, it's warfare, we're dying
Believing we're winning, it's ending, we're singing
It's already done, we've over come

Mercy screams its violent love
Justice and mercy
Justice and mercy
The depth of us created for
Justice and mercy
Justice and mercy
This is where they kiss

With a life on the line, the fire
That consumes or refines, a fire
To ascend or decline, to retreat or to climb
Out of sight out of mind, 'til attacked from behind
Will this fire consume or refine

Mercy screams its violent love
Justice and mercy
Justice and mercy
The depth of us created for
Justice and mercy
Justice and mercy
This is where they kiss
