    LYRICS
    The day begins to blur
    Under this bruised light
    Within the beast still stirs
    Am I unfit to guide?
    And now I’m weeping towards the sky
    For what seeps back into the earth
    Are we not supposed to love
    In fear of losing someone?
    Are we too afraid to feel
    Too many wounds to heal?
    Will they ever heal?
    Will they ever heal?
    Cause we don’t need this pain and this suffering, no
    We don’t need this pain and this suffering, no
    Just a little mercy
    You cannot live the life
    The life left behind you
    You cry out loud with all your might
    But no one will hear you
    There will be desolation
    We will throw ourselves into the fire
    But the sooner love is gone
    The ghosts will begin to haunt
    But I know the beauty lies
    In the dawn’s early light
    Well, It gives and gives in healing waves
    But that’s not enough
    No, it’s not enough
    Cause we don’t need this pain and this suffering, no
    We don’t need this pain and this suffering, no
    Just a little mercy

    The slow, soothing tones and unrelentless talent of Dallas Green is only matched by the power of his lyricism and his ability to drag a soul into introspection. The way this man’s music has felt relatable throughout the years regardless of how I grow shows an outstanding resilience and artistic range. City and Colour will always be on my playlist.

    This song evoke a sense of introspection and contemplation about the human experience, love, pain, suffering, and the search for mercy. The opening lines set a somber tone, describing a blurred day under a bruised light, hinting at a sense of uncertainty or darkness. The line "Within the beast still stirs, am I unfit to guide?" suggests an internal struggle or conflict within the narrator.
    The next lines express a profound sadness and vulnerability, as the narrator weeps towards the sky, symbolizing a plea or a longing for something greater. The phrase "For what seeps back into the earth" implies a sense of loss or the transient nature of life. The following question, "Are we not supposed to love in fear of losing someone?" raises the idea that the fear of loss can hinder our ability to fully embrace love.
    The repeated refrain, "We don't need this pain and this suffering, no, just a little mercy," highlights the desire for relief from the hardships and challenges that life presents. It reflects a plea for compassion and understanding.
    The subsequent lines emphasize the feeling of isolation and desperation. The imagery of crying out loudly with no one hearing and the mention of desolation and throwing oneself into the fire depict a sense of hopelessness or a struggle to be heard or understood.
    The mention of love being gone and the ghosts beginning to haunt suggests the aftermath of lost love or relationships. However, amidst the melancholy, there is a recognition of the beauty that lies in the dawn's early light, which symbolizes hope and new beginnings.
    The line "It gives and gives in healing waves, but that's not enough, no, it's not enough" conveys a longing for more than just surface-level healing. It implies that there is a deeper longing for a sense of fulfillment or resolution beyond what mere healing can provide.
    This song explore themes of emotional turmoil, the longing for relief, the complexities of love and loss, and the search for solace and understanding. They invite the listener to reflect on their own experiences of pain, suffering, and the potential for mercy or compassion to bring solace and healing.

      Interesting how it's in front of a cross jesus is the one who takes the sorrow and suffering and grants us mercy through our belief in him all these people who use biblical imagery are missing the bigger picture we will suffer with pain, suffering, struggle, but with him we have hope in the end

    A Little Mercy"
    The day begins to blur
    Under this bruised light
    Within the beast still stirs
    Am I unfit to guide?
    And now I'm weeping towards the sky
    For what seeps back into the earth
    Are we not supposed to love
    In fear of losing someone?
    Are we too afraid to feel
    Too many wounds to heal?
    Will they ever heal?
    Will they ever heal?
    'Cause we don't need this pain and this suffering, no
    We don't need this pain and this suffering, no
    Just a little mercy
    No
    No, no
    You cannot live the life
    The life left behind you
    You cry out loud with all your might
    But no one will hear you
    There will be desolation
    We will throw ourselves into the fire
    But the sooner love is gone
    The ghosts will begin to haunt
    But I know the beauty lies
    In the dawn's early light
    Well, it gives and gives in healing waves
    But that's not enough
    No, it's not enough
    'Cause we don't need this pain and this suffering, no
    We don't need this pain and this suffering, no
    Just a little mercy
    No
    No
    Just a little mercy
    Just a little mercy
    Just a little mercy

    Dallas my bruv, I'll be brutally honest with you. I grew a bit tired of all the echoing effects in your vocals. I know all things pass, but I miss the raw stuff you used to write. I might give this album another listening or two. But there is too much of the same thing. Maybe I like Sometimes and Little Hell too much.
