The song begins from the self-effacing perspective of Mary Magdalene as she looks at Christ. In a few measures, however, it becomes clear that this song could have been written from the perspective of anyone with feelings of self-loathing inspired by personal failure and dogma-induced guilt. As the song's heroin discovers, and hopefully the listener as well, new life and healing from the pain of religion, sin, and disappointment, can be found through the peace of Christ. |

Lyrics
Somehow I forgot what love is, now I can't even love myself
And if I can't find it within me, how can I find it in someone else?
I'm a victim of hypocrisy, because my corrupters accuse me
They stand and point their fingers at the shattered remnants of my purity
But when I fall at Your feet
All my impurity melts away
When I release the tears
All my fears are too frightened to stay
When I pour out my life
All that was empty is filled anew
When I lose my life, I find it in You.
