Lyrics for The Sun

Angel of mercy, how did you find me? Where did you read my story? Pulled from the papers, desperate and hurting Seeking a momentary fix All I wanted to say, all I wanted to do Is fall apart now All I wanted to feel, I wanted to love It's all my fault now A tragedy I fear Angel of mercy, how did you find me? How did you pick me up again? Angel of mercy, how did you move me? Why am I on my feet again? I see you Whoa whoa whoa I feel you Whoa whoa whoa Fortress of daylight Caught me on standby Waiting to catch the quickest plane To fly me to nowhere It's better than somewhere That's where I've been and nothings changed All I wanted to say, all I wanted to do Is fall apart now All I wanted to feel, I wanted to love It's all my fault now A tragedy I chose Angel of mercy, how did you find me? How did you pick me up again? Angel of mercy, how did you move me? Why am I on my feet again? I see you Whoa whoa whoa I feel you Whoa whoa whoa I'm so lost in you A tragedy, it seemed to be over now A tragedy, it seemed to be over now Angel of mercy, how did you find me? How did you pick me up again? Angel of mercy, how did you move me? Why am I on my feet again? I see you Whoa whoa whoa I feel you Whoa whoa whoa I feel you Oh oh whoa I feel you Oh oh oh
