Patricia Fawkes - Merciful Destiny Lyrics

It's all about it
A price tag to your life

You're a happy child
Playing with your toys
Until somebody comes
The one who loves you most, loves you most

Hiding in plain sight
Pretending you needed help
How can you deny it?
He's always the best, the best

Now you're hurt so much
The child within is gone
Becoming an adult
Hollow inside

Desperate to be filled in
Denying you're suffering
Refusing it all
With your tyranny
Desperate to be filled in
Denying you're suffering
Looking for
A merciful destiny

A power that neutralized
All the humiliation
In the hopes of turning it into love
Fulfilling your expectations
Of never being alone
But the only kind of love you know
Is the power over someone
Is the power over someone

Drugs can keep you from falling
Keeping your eyes open
In spite of your blindness
Just long enough,
(humming)

Desperate to be filled in
Denying you're suffering
Refusing it all
With your tyranny
In a compûlsive way
Addiction Again
Repeating all day
Shame on me
Victim of
A merciful destiny
