Mercy in You (Live) [Liévin 29/7/93]Depeche Mode

Released: December 6, 1993

Songwriter: Martin L. Gore

Producer: Steve Lyon Alan Wilder

[Verse 1]
You know what I need when my heart bleeds
I suffer from greed, a longing to feed
On the mercy in you

[Verse 2]
I can't conceal the way I'm healed
The pleasure I feel when I have to deal
With the mercy in you

[Chorus]
I would do it all again
Lose my way and fall again
Just so I could call again
On the mercy in you‚ on the mercy in you

[Verse 3]
When here in my mind I feel inclined
To wrongly treat you unkind‚ I have faith I will find ("Oh yeah!")
The mercy in you

[Chorus]
I would lose my way again
Be led hopelessly astray again
Just so I could pray again
For the mercy in you

[Interlude]
"Oh yeah!"

[Verse 4]
When here in my mind I have been blind
Emotionally behind‚ I'll have faith I will find ("Yeah!")
The mercy in you, the mercy in you
The mercy in you, the mercy in you ("Oh yeah! Oh!")

[Outro]
"Thank you."

Depeche Mode

Depeche Mode are recognized as one of the most artistically influential bands of the late 20th century. Commercially, they have released 14 studio albums to date, and sold more than 100 million records. Their most recent album, Spirit, hit the streets in March 2017.

The band got their start in Basildon, Essex in 1980, and named themselves after a French fashion magazine. They rose to fame with hits that have become “Just Can’t Get Enough” (1981), “Everything Counts” (1983), and “People Are People” (1984), to name a few. One of their most famous concerts was at the Pasadena Rose Bowl in 1988.

Martin Gore has been the band’s primary songwriter since Vince Clarke left in the early 1980s (and went on to form Yazoo and Erasure). Alan Wilder replaced Clarke on keyboards in 1982, but left in 1995 (reinvesting his creative energy in his band, Recoil, which he had started in 1986). Since then, the band has comprised frontman Dave Gahan, multi-instrumentalist Martin Gore, and keyboardist Andy Fletcher—all of whom are original members.
