Show mercy unto me and stay your distance.

   You have so impaired my resistance.

Do not tempt me. I cannot withstand it.

   What injury you would do me with your cold hard heart of granite.

Let time pass, let me regain my strength.

   My walls repair, those that only you could break.

I could not let go, my will was not my own.

   Please return in kind the kindness I have shown.

Give me precious time and this will pass,

   Letting me go, released at last.

Show mercy unto me and stay your distance,

   For you have so impaired my resistance.
