Justice and Mercy- Flyleaf

Justice and Mercy

We can't be oblivious

We are not ignorant

Blood in our hearts

Blood in our hands

We're human

We reason

We're breathing

Protecting

You're 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 death of us created for

Justice...

And Mercy

Justice... 

And mercy

This is where they kiss

Life, who sacrificed

Someone who payed the price

Blood in our hearts

Blood in 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 it's violent love

Justice...

And mercy

Justice... 

And mercy

The death of us created for

Justice...

And mercy

Justice...

And mercy

This is where they kiss

With a life on the line (the fire...)

That consumes or refines (the fire)

To ascend or decline

To retreat or to climb

Out of sight. out of mind

'till attacked from behind

Will this fire...

Consume or refine?

Mercy scream its violent love

Justice...

And mercy

Justice... 

And mercy 

The death of us created for

Justice...

And mercy

Justice...

And mercy

This is where they kiss
