Let Me Be Your Jesus
Embracing Support: Let Me Be Your Strength Through the Storm
Lyrics
Let me hurt, let me bleed
Expressing a willingness to experience pain and suffering.
Let me toss and turn
Desiring to undergo internal struggles and restlessness.
Let me lose some sleep
Willingness to sacrifice sleep, possibly for the sake of a relationship.
Let me drive, let me drown
Willing to face challenges, even to the point of emotional drowning.
Pull over on the shoulder and just break down
Expressing vulnerability by breaking down emotionally on the roadside.
Ooh, wanna be your strength
Desire to be a source of strength for someone else.
Ooh, when all hell breaks
Willing to provide support in difficult times.
I can do, I can do, I can do the crying, baby
Expressing readiness to handle emotional pain and tears.
And I can be, I can be, I can be your heart of stone
Willing to be emotionally strong and resilient.
So you don't have to feel, you don't have to feel anything, baby
Offering to shield someone from feeling negative emotions.
If you let me be your Jesus
Desire to play a comforting and supportive role akin to Jesus.
You won't have to go through hell alone
Promising not to let the other person face hardship alone.
Let it rain, let it pour
Accepting difficulties and challenges to come, analogous to rain.
Let the devil go ahead and open up that door
Willingness to confront difficult situations initiated by external forces.
'Cause I will be like a wall between
Commitment to act as a protective barrier against adversity.
Your shackles and chains, I will break you free
Expressing the intent to liberate the other person from their struggles.
Ooh, I'm a tear fallin' down
Symbolizing empathy by being a tear falling down.
Ooh, when you hit the ground
Being present and supportive when the other person is in distress.
I can do, I can do, I can do the crying, baby
Reiterating the readiness to handle emotional pain and tears.
And I can be, I can be, I can be your heart of stone
Emphasizing the capability to be emotionally resilient.
So you don't have to feel, you don't have to feel anything, baby
Reassuring the commitment to shield the other person from negative feelings.
If you let me be your Jesus
Reiterating the desire to be a supportive and comforting figure like Jesus.
You won't have to go through hell alone
Promising not to let the other person face hardship alone, echoing line 13.
Ooh, any cross you bear
Willingness to bear any burdens or challenges the other person faces.
Ooh, when life ain't fair
Being there for the other person when life is unfair.
Ooh, I'll be right there
Expressing a commitment to be present during difficult times.
I can do, I can do, I can do the crying, baby
Reiterating the readiness to handle emotional pain and tears.
And I can be, I can be, I can be your heart of stone
Emphasizing the capability to be emotionally resilient.
So you don't have to feel, you don't have to feel anything, baby
Reassuring the commitment to shield the other person from negative feelings.
If you let me be your Jesus
Reiterating the desire to be a supportive and comforting figure like Jesus.
You won't have to go through hell alone
Promising not to let the other person face hardship alone, echoing line 13.
You won't have to go through hell alone
Reassuring the other person that they won't be left to face difficulties alone.
You won't have to go through hell alone
Reiterating the commitment not to leave the other person alone in their struggles.
