On the road to Jericho
I'm stripped of all I own
Beat and left for dead
On my back, your feet tread
In spite of you, I pray
To live another day
I vow that I will change
My sins, I repent
Can I hold you?
Can I save you
From the cold fist of shame?
Would I want to?
There is more than one way home?
Can I make it there alone?
If I should lose my way
Don't lose faith in me
I'm consumed by all your flaws
Your pious man-made laws
My weakness is within
I atone for my sins
Can I hold you?
Can I save you
From mistakes you've made?
Would I want to?
I want your love
I need your love
Can I hold you?
Can I save you
From mistakes you've made?
Would I want to?
Can I show you
All I've been through?
My wounds have no pain
Your words have no weight
I want your love
I need your love
I want your love
I need your love
I want your love
I need your love
