When your longest night is coming down
When pieces of you hit the ground
When every word they say about you is a lie
When they put your soul up for review
When they're set on turning every screw
Call on me and I will testify
Let me be your witness
Let me be your witness
Let me be your witness
When no one sees and no one hears
Your secret heart
Your bitter tears
When it feels like you're just sinking in the sand
When you cant remember who you are
When you wonder how you came this far
Call my name and put me on the stand
Let me be your witness...
To your mystery
To your ecstasy
To the tears you cry
I will testify
To your longest night
To how hard you fight
To your inner light
A higher place
Your grace
To where you are
And to who you've been-
Jesus
Jezebel
To your heaven
To your hell
Let me be your witness
Let me be your witness.
