☠️Maximator_Stupidus☠️ - No Mercy in the Sky (Cover)

I sit beside your bed at night, the breathing weak, the silence loud Your eyes are begging for release, but heaven never comes around The prayers I whispered years ago dissolve into the air I curse the sky, I curse the void, but nothing answers there The doctors nod, they write it down, they say there’s nothing more to try I see your body breaking slow, but still it will not let you die They talk of grace, of miracles, of some eternal plan But all I see is trembling hands and wasted dreams of man You tell me that you wish for rest, for silence in your veins Yet every morning drags you back to suffering again Where’s the mercy in the sky, where’s the God they said would care? I’ve been screaming at the heavens but there’s nothing, nothing there If love was all that mattered you’d be free from all this pain But faith is just a fairytale, and silence still remains I watch the seconds drip like blood, the endless nights, the endless cries The holy books all speak of hope but I can’t stand their pretty lies The saints and martyrs never sat where I am sitting now They never saw the ones they love decay and still ask how Your whispered breath, “please let me go,” it cuts me to the bone And every sermon ever preached feels colder than a stone Where’s the mercy in the sky, where’s the God they said would care? I’ve been screaming at the heavens but there’s nothing, nothing there If love was all that mattered you’d be free from all this pain But faith is just a fairytale, and silence still remains They say “God works in mysteries” while you can barely breathe They say “there’s purpose in your suffering” but I just want reprieve If this is holy wisdom, then I want no part of it A world that makes you beg for death is not one I’ll submit Where’s the mercy in the sky, where’s the God they said would care? I’ve been screaming at the heavens but there’s nothing, nothing there If love was all that mattered you’d be free from all this pain But faith is just a fairytale, and silence still remains So I will hold your hand tonight until you slip away No angels here, no shining gates, just ashes and decay
