Lyrics

It’s 3am and I just played the same songs again
Different town, familiar faces, now and then
We’ve driven thousand miles but still have more to go
Fingers crossed these wheels will hold until the next show

The days are nights
The quiet’s too loud
The darkest lights
So alone in those crowds

I’m at the mercy of an illusory shell
A faceless advocate who speaks when I can’t for myself

Going through the motions until I’ve lost my voice
No more melodies, I’m just making noise
How much longer can a troubled heart restrain
Every single echo, all of my mistakes

Desert’s cold
Broken vows
My grip won’t hold
All alone in this crowd

I’m at the mercy of an illusory shell
A faceless advocate who speaks when I can’t for myself

They say all good comes in threes
Though failure comes with ease
Can you hold onto what was never meant to be?
Someday the journey ends
And the ride’s complete
Give up control, but I wanna believe

The Mercy of
An illusory shell
A faceless advocate
Who speaks when I can’t for myself

We’re at the mercy of
An illusory shell
A faceless advocate
Who speaks when we can’t for ourselves

I’m at the mercy of an illusory shell
A faceless advocate who speaks when I can’t for myself
