Lyrics:

I could’ve gone to war
Become a God of Wrath
My fingers snap, flash!, and baby
You’d be nothing but ash
But I thought better of it
Oh yeah

You could go old-school on me
And not spare the lash
You could bash, smash me, baby
Throw me out with the trash
But you thought better of it

Your love had mercy, mercy, mercy on me
Better of it
Mercy, mercy, mercy on me
Better of it
Mercy, mercy, mercy
We got dressed in our New Testament best
And thought better of it
Uh huh

Could take an eye for an eye
Drown in a big blood bath
That fast crash, and baby
We’re a sad aftermath
But we thought better of it

Our love had mercy, mercy, mercy on us
Better of it
Mercy, mercy, mercy
Better of it
Mercy, mercy, mercy
We got dressed in our New Testament best
And thought better of it


I could’ve gone to war
Become a God of Wrath
My fingers snap, flash!, and baby
You’d be nothing but ash

But I thought better of it
My love had mercy, mercy, mercy on you
Better of it
Your love had mercy, mercy, mercy on me
Better of it
My love had mercy, mercy, mercy on you
Better of it
Your love had mercy, mercy, mercy on me
Better of it
My love had mercy, mercy, mercy on you
Better of it
Your love had mercy, mercy, mercy on me
Better of it
My love had mercy, mercy, mercy on you
We got dressed in our New Testament best
And thought better of it
Better of it
We thought better of it
Better of it
Better of it
Yeah, better of it
Better of it
We got dressed in our New Testament best
We got dressed in our New Testament best
We got dressed in our New Testament best
And thought better of it
