Akissforjersey Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I will scream your name out
But I won't walk away
Your heartbeat's getting fainter
It's your choice to leave or stay

God save me, Oh God save me [x3]
'Cause I'm a sinner
The world is ending
Don't delay
I'll just keep holding on

There's a war within my body
And it's tearing me apart
The ivory is cracked in shattered pieces
And I relied too much on my heart

(You watched me everywhere I go)
Now my son
(You watched me everywhere I go)
Where I am from
(Your spirit is in me)
Moves in me
(Awake now, and I see)

There's a war within my body
And it's tearing me apart [x2]

God save me, Oh God save me [x3]
'Cause we're all sinners

What an awful sound
Repent your life away
Now is it real?

Your mistaken
Not until your life's
No longer your own

A kingdom's coming back
And you're scared
Because you fear that there's no
Place for you, place for you there

Falling away




You know it's easy
Staring failure in the face [x2]
