Under the Mercy

I'm not searching for proofs now
Here down deep in the depths
I have come to surrender
I'm not holding my breath
I won't search for an exit
Or fight the current anymore
I'll refuse any lifeline
I won't reach for the shore
The water is living
I'm not here for a swim...
Over its surface
I've gone further in
Where all that I'm sure of
Is I'm drowning in your love
Under the Mercy
Going under the Mercy
The river is flowing
Toward places unknown
I'll either survive this
Or I'll sink like a stone
I'm resigned to going
Along for the ride
What's the use in resisting
This irresistible tide?
The water is living
I'm not here for a swim...
Over its surface
I've gone further in
Where all that I'm sure of
Is I'm drowning in your love
Under the Mercy
Under the Mercy
Ooooooh...
The water is living
I'm not here for a swim...
Over its surface
I've gone further in
Where all that I'm sure of
Is I'm drowning in your love
Under the Mercy
Going under the Mercy
Under the Mercy
Under the Mercy
I'm going down again (oh, the water is living)
Under the Mercy
I'm going down again
Under the Mercy
