Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I was wrong and I take full responsibility
Nah I can't lie
yaeh I did my dirt and did willingly
I'm down on my knees
praying
asking for your mercy
Lord I'm sorry
I look to the hills
for my help
Lord I need you now
it's a state of emergency
Lord I need you now

Lord I need you now

Lord I need you now
my heart is broken
I dont think that I'm gonna make it
he told me he loved me
it was only after he was cheating
I can't seem to let this pain go
I hurt so bad I can't fake it
don't know if I love anyone else please Lord I feel hopeless
I look to the hills
