Tear Down My Walls

I found myself writing this the other day, after listening to some songs that had a similar point to them. It's one of those things that I don't want, but I want at the same time. "The King of Contradictions has struck again, He says that the last to cross the finish line...will win."


After all, is said and done, I find myself in your presence
After all, I can’t become, who you asked me to be
For there are sins in my life from which I can’t break free…..

So tear down my walls, please break all I am, I admit I am scared but I don’t need to stand
Let me feel pain, if that’s what it takes…just tear down my life until I’m on my face…crying out.

After all, my pride isn’t gone, and I know that’s not your way
After all, I’m scared of this prayer, but I know it’s what I must pray
For there are sins in my life from which I can’t break free….

So tear down my walls, please break all I am, I admit I am scared but I don’t need to stand
Let me feel pain, if that’s what it takes…please tear down my life until I’m on my face…crying out.

After all, we both know the key, It’s more of you…and less of me
After all, it’s when I’m undone, that you can remake me just like your son
For there are sins In my life, from which I can’t break free….

So tear down my walls, please break all I am, I admit I am scared but I don’t need to stand
Let me feel pain, if that’s what it takes…just tear down my life until I’m on my face…crying out.

After all, this is my prayer, that all would fade until you are there.
After all, you know my heart, ignore all my fears and please break my heart!

So tear down these walls, this life I have made. Tear down my comfort, this game I have played
So tear down my pride, let it pass away. Yes, tear down my body, please toss it away.
Ignore all the cries while chipping away, ignore all my pleading…I know what it takes….

So tear down my walls, please break all I am, I admit I am scared but I don’t need to stand
Let me feel pain, if that’s what it takes…just tear down my life until I’m on my face…crying out.
Crying out. I’m crying out. Crying out. To you, to you, just you, only you. Only you….
