[Intro]
Oh Jerusalem, yeah
Oh Jerusalem
Oh Jerusalem
Oh Jerusalem
[Verse 1]
Realizing that there's no place else to go
And there's nobody I know who can help me
Textbook solutions are so improbable
'Cause everybody else is just as empty
Naked as the day that I was born, I tried to hide
Behind education and philosophy
Hopeless explanation to describe a situation
I can't see because the world's on top of me
[Verse 2]
Oh, wretched man that I am, who will deliver me
From the body of this death?
Freeing me from dust and the superficial trust
Of an enemy that seeks to take my breath
Failing to connect 'cause I'm morally defect
By reason of the God inside my head
Causing me to see only what pertains to me
Believing I'm alive when I'm still dead
Oh Jerusalem, yeah
Oh Jerusalem
Oh Jerusalem
Oh Jerusalem
[Verse 1]
Realizing that there's no place else to go
And there's nobody I know who can help me
Textbook solutions are so improbable
'Cause everybody else is just as empty
Naked as the day that I was born, I tried to hide
Behind education and philosophy
Hopeless explanation to describe a situation
I can't see because the world's on top of me
[Verse 2]
Oh, wretched man that I am, who will deliver me
From the body of this death?
Freeing me from dust and the superficial trust
Of an enemy that seeks to take my breath
Failing to connect 'cause I'm morally defect
By reason of the God inside my head
Causing me to see only what pertains to me
Believing I'm alive when I'm still dead
