Justice And Mercy Lyrics - Much Like Falling - Flyleaf

We can't be oblivious, we are not ignorant 

Blood in our hearts and blood on our hands 

We're human, we reason, we're breathing 

Protecting the living and dying, surviving 

We're trying to breathe in safety, come home safely 

Mercy screams its violent love 

Justice and mercy, justice and mercy 

The depth of us created for 

Justice and mercy, justice and mercy 

This is where they kiss 

Life here sacrificed, someone who paid the price 

Blood in our hearts and blood on our hands 

We cry out, we're fighting, it's warfare, we're dying 

Believing we're winning, it's ending, we're singing 

It's already done, we've overcome 

Mercy screams its violent love 

Justice and mercy, justice and mercy 

The depth of us created for 

Justice and mercy, justice and mercy 

This is where they kiss 

With a life on the line of fire 

That consumes or refines the fire 

To ascent or decline, to retreat or to climb 

Out of sight, out of mind 'til attacked from behind 

Will this fire resume or refine? 

Mercy screams its violent love 

Justice and mercy, justice and mercy 

The depth of us created for 

Justice and mercy, justice and mercy 

This is where they kiss
