  • [Verse 1:]
    Sittin in the dark shakin in a cold wind dyin to get
    well keep trying but I'm broken
    A kiss on my lips that use to thrill me,
    if I go another day it's gonna kill me
    Slipped into a dream woke up in a nightmare scars on
    my skin don't know how they got there
    How heavy was the crown of thorns? I wonder if I'm to far gone?

    [Chorus:]
    They say Jesus walked the dark hills He broke bread
    with beggars and thieves
    If I cry out in this darkness, if I fall down on my knees
    If He walks the dark hills, will He come for me? Will He come save me?

    [Verse 2:]
    Searching for the truth through stained glass windows
    covered up in shame things that only I know
    Strike a match and light another candle,
    raise my hands a sing a pretty song.
    If anybody knew this ugliness inside me would they
    throw a stone would the crucify me?
    How Heavy was the crown of thorns? I wonder if I'm to far gone?

    [Chorus]

    [Bridge:]
    How Heavy was the crown of thorns? I wonder if I'm to far gone?

    [Chorus 3:]
    They say Jesus walks the dark hills He breaks bread
    with beggars and thieves
    When I cry out in this darkness, When I fall down on my knees
    When He walks the dark hills,
    I know He'll come for me. I know He'll come save me. Publisher: Anthem Entertainment, CONCORD MUSIC PUBLISHING LLC
