The Only Way Out Lyrics
The Only Way Out Song Lyrics
[Verse 1]
If you could look inside my life
And use my eyes, would you pity me?
Would you see the desperate nights
And all the lies that brought me to my knees
I keep thinking that I have to make you fall
The way I fell from your betrayal to bring me peace of mind
I will let you move along, just walk away
And wear a cape like you're some hero
[Chorus]
I can't hear love cause we're at war
And revenge is so loud and the drums are so proud
But oh, I'm in a cage and I hear mercy say "I'm here now"
And it's the only way out
I can't hear love cause we're at war
But revenge is so loud and the drums are so proud
But I'm still in a cage and I hear mercy say now
It's the only way out
[Verse 2]
I used to hear my father say, "Counterplay ends in defeat"
And I said I'd never be that way
Tried to make you pay cause it would cost me
But you owe me so much more than what you gave to this
I guess every story twists
People tell me let it go, oh, and forget
[Chorus]
I can't hear love cause we're at war
And revenge is so loud and the drums are so proud
But oh, I'm in a cage and I hear mercy say "I'm here now"
And it's the only way out
I can't hear love cause we're at war
But revenge is so loud and the drums are so proud
But I'm still in a cage and I hear mercy say now
It's the only way
[Outro]
Mercy's the only way out
Mercy gave me my way out

Afro-American singer Andra Day with perfectly distinguished voice asks is another person would blame her, if he could look inside of her with her eyes, feeling what she feels, thinking what she thinks. She would just let him go, as he had betrayed her, but she overwhelmed this betrayal and is now ready to live further. She feels like they are at war and thus, she cannot love. But she hears words of mercy being in a cage. The revenge will come to everyone who did bad things.
