I’ve been running from the truth like a getaway train,
Heart beating like a thief trying to outrun blame.
But the city never sleeps on the sins you make—
Yeah, the dark got a way of keeping score too late.
Got a pocket full of trouble and a past I owe,
Every step I take sparks another shadow.
But when the clock hits twelve and the lights burn low,
I feel something pulling at my soul like—“go.”

And I can’t hide from the way it hits me…
Every wrong turn calling out for mercy.

Midnight mercy—
Come on, save me from myself tonight.
I’ve been walking edges that don’t serve me,
Chasing every wrong that felt too right.
Yeah, I’m begging for a lifeline
Before I lose the fight.
Midnight mercy—
Meet me in the neon light.

Got a habit of pretending I’m bulletproof,
Laughing loud so I don’t have to tell the truth.
But the dark knows every lie I’ve been hiding through—
And the mirror don’t care what I claim to do.
I’m a mess on the run, but I’m owning it now,
Got a heart full of bruises but I’m standing proud.
And if redemption’s waiting somewhere downtown,
I’ll chase it ‘til the whole world shouts.

And I can’t hide from the way it hits me…
Every wrong turn calling out for mercy.

Midnight mercy—
Come on, save me from myself tonight.
I’ve been walking edges that don’t serve me,
Chasing every wrong that felt too right.
Yeah, I’m begging for a lifeline
Before I lose the fight.
Midnight mercy—
Meet me in the neon light.

Oh, I’ve been dancing on the line too long,
Running with the things that did me wrong.
If the night’s the only place I belong—
Then let the night make me strong.

Mercy, mercy—
I need it when the city gets dirty.
Mercy, mercy—
Save me ‘fore the truth comes early.

Midnight mercy—
Come on, save me from myself tonight.
I’ve been walking edges that don’t serve me,
Chasing every wrong that felt too right.
Yeah, I’m begging for a lifeline
Before I lose the fight.
Midnight mercy—
Meet me in the neon light.

Meet me in the neon light…
Midnight mercy.
