Old Mercy lyrics

This is what you`re preachin`
What you`re teachin` them
I don`t want any part of it
I see something wrong
With holding rocks in your hands
So many splinters in your eyes
You can`t even see the man that
You blame your pain within
It`s unbelievable to me how you
Can see all that`s wrong with another
And still be blind
The sin you make excuses for
Do this and don`t do that `cause it`s wrong
But you`ve been sittin` here gossiping all day long
And that`s okay

(Chorus)
Why?
Why`s it gotta be this way?
Why?
Why must we play these games?
Let the freedom bell ring
Whatever happened to old mercy?

I heard it read from a book that`s been around a few years
If you ain`t got no sin, go ahead, start through stones
But I`m anxious to see how many people just like me
Would have to put your big rocks down
Put `em down, down

(Chorus 3x)
