Lyrics

Verse 1
Midnight breath on a broken town,
Neon hummin’, rain fallin’ down.
I sit alone where the shadows lean,
With the ghosts of every place I’ve been.

Verse 2
I’ve said things I can’t take back,
Left good hearts along the track.
Some nights a man can hear it clear,
Every word he left in fear.

Pre-Chorus
Lord knows I ain’t proud of it,
But I ain’t runnin’ now.

Chorus
I’m waitin’ on midnight mercy,
Some quiet grace in the dark.
Not askin’ for a clean new start,
Just a light for this tired heart.
If forgiveness walks these streets,
I’ll meet it where the shadows meet.

Verse 3
Old bar piano, tired and low,
Playin’ truths nobody knows.
Some men pray, some men drown,
Some just walk till mercy’s found.

Verse 4
I ain’t holy, I ain’t clean,
But I know what regret means.
And if redemption takes its time,
I’ll be here past closing time.

Bridge
A man don’t change in a flash of light,
It’s mile by mile through endless night.

Final Chorus
I’m waitin’ on midnight mercy,
Not a miracle, not a flame.
Just a quiet hand on my shoulder,
And someone whisperin’ my name.

Outro
Midnight mercy…
Take your time.
