If you leave me alone with a computer, a piano, or a guitar for long enough, chances are very good I will write a love song, and that’s exactly what this is. Chances are also good that I’ll mention the sea, and/or the rain, because I am obsessed with water. -JJ

I have lived for years, by choice, entombed
The world outside so different from this room
Hallways shifting, all the faces change
Intentions never seem to stay the same

Everyone has eyes, nobody sees
You’re the only one that looks at me
On my knees
I surrender my self helplessly
I’m in chains with no wish to be free

Take my hand and lead me thru the rain
Only human, I am still afraid
Though I give myself and feel no shame
Only human, I can still feel pain

I awake and find myself renewed
Never felt such joy to be consumed
And your thirst will never drain my cup
I exist only to fill you up

And my beating heart will melt the frost
You are here and I’m no longer lost
Can’t you see
I will give you every part of me
I’m in chains with no wish to be free

Take my hand and lead me thru the rain
Only human, I am still afraid
Though I give myself and feel no shame
Only human, I can still feel pain

Now I walk the longest miles untamed
I will never cease to feel amazed
