NO MERCY
Ofln - The Living Tombstone Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

This is the worst team I have ever played with in my life
When we finally get on the point, everyone dies
I understand that every now and then a team won't click
When it comes to you, I don't think I can sympathize

You should've picked Mercy
You should've picked any kind of support
We ended up losing, and it's all your fault
You should learn how this game works
You should've been helping

If you like Mercy so much, why don't you just marry her?

So you're the type that gets on mic and tries to lecture me
When you're the most useless person we have on our team
I've never seen anybody rage quite as hard as you
Maybe you should go back to playing Team Fortress 2

I'm not gonna be Mercy
I'm not gonna be any kind of support
We ended up losing, and you got all mad
Your tears are what I live for
You should've been Mercy
I'm not gonna be any kind of support
We ended up losing, and it's all your fault
Your tears are what I live for

Maybe I'll be Tracer
I'm already Tracer
What about Widowmaker?
I'm already Widowmaker
I'll be Bastion
Nerf Bastion
You're right, so, Winston
I wanna be Winston
I guess I'll be Genji
I'm already Genji
Then I'll be McCree
I already chose McCree
I have an idea
What's your idea?
You should be
I'm not gonna be Mercy

You should've picked Mercy
I'm not gonna be any kind of support
We ended up losing, and it's all your fault
Your tears are what I live for
I'm not gonna be Mercy
You should've picked any kind of support




We ended up losing, and you got all mad
You should learn how this game works

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "No Mercy" by The Living Tombstone express frustration and criticism towards a teammate in an online video game. The singer begins by expressing their dissatisfaction with the team, claiming it to be the worst they have ever played with. They highlight the team's inability to successfully capture the objective, as everyone dies once they reach it. The singer acknowledges that sometimes teams don't click, but they are unwilling to sympathize with this particular teammate.


The singer then directs their frustration specifically towards this teammate, suggesting that they should have chosen a character called Mercy or any other support character. The blame for the team's loss is placed solely on this person's shoulders. The singer suggests that the teammate should have been more helpful and also sarcastically asks why they don't just marry the character Mercy if they like her so much.


The lyrics further elaborate on the teammate's behavior, referring to them as the most useless person on the team. The singer insults the teammate's anger and suggests that they should go back to playing another game called "Team Fortress 2." The singer firmly asserts that they will not choose a support character like Mercy, despite its potential benefits for the team.


The lyrics then take a humorous turn with a series of back-and-forth lines between the singer and the teammate. They playfully mention various characters from the game, expressing their intent to be them before realizing that each character has already been chosen by the teammate. This leads to the idea of the teammate suggesting a character for the singer, but the singer interrupts and firmly reiterates that they will not choose the support character Mercy.


In the final repetition of the chorus, the singer once again states that the teammate should have chosen Mercy or any support character. They express annoyance at the teammate's anger and suggest that they should learn how the game works. Overall, the lyrics depict frustration with a teammate's choices and behavior, particularly in relation to team composition and the importance of having support characters like Mercy.

A song from a time when overwatch was a very pleasant and cozy game. It is a pity that this is no longer the case.

@Beanjello22

This song embodies a silly little mindset that makes the game feel comfortable to me still, but also I’ve practically grown up with overwatch so the game (and this song) will always have a place in my heart lol

@marsfisch44

literally a song about trash talking?
