Verse 1


Time stands too still
                              
Left you there for the kill
	   
But this hope that sorrow bleeds
                                 
Leaves a man with nothing

Chorus

		   		     		
There's just no mercy in your eyes
		   		       	 
There ain't no time to set things right
		   		       	 
And I'm afraid I've lost the fight
	 	   		       	 
I'm just a painful reminder
	     		     
Another day you leave behind

Verse 2


Love grows so thin
                               
Suits your taste for bitter ends
	   
But this ache that holds you in
                                 
Leaves no place to begin

Chorus

		   		     		
There's just no mercy in your eyes, child
		   		     		
There ain't no time to set things right
		   		     		
And I'm afraid I've lost the fight
	 	   		       	 
I'm just a painful reminder
	     		     
Another day you leave behind

Verse 3


Words seem so blind
                               
I've been pushed far aside

Soon my choice seems too small
                                 
Any move and I could fall

Chorus

		   		     		
There's just no mercy in your eyes, child
		   		     		
There ain't no time to set things right
		   		     		
And I'm not preaching to the choir
	 	   		       	 
I'm just a painful reminder
	     		     
And you're a fool satisfied
