Mercy To Go lyrics

look outside it`s nice enough
but we`ll stay in with all our stuff
this is dedication more than love
my cowardice is what you need
so your vanities can breed
plant your flowers in my weeds
When I call you beautiful
it`s cause I can
and when you think I`m sucking up
I sort of am
the little lies that make you feel good
I say more often than I should
`cause I`m a low level rebel
I jaywalk to beat the devil
I`m no bass but lots of treble
all the things about me are forced
a costume party or compulsory course
so let`s get right to the source
When I call you beautiful
it`s cause I can
and when you think I`m sucking up
I sort of am
the little lies that make you feel good
I say more often than I should
so I can never make you mad...
any change will bring on pain
so I deny it all the same
so I can never make you mad
never make you mad...
