Here Come The Tears Lyrics

This is another religious song by J.P. (the other one being "Run of the mill").

Tears are coming because of his repentance.

Being alone for too much time made him reflect about his past life. He just doesn't want anymore to have some "love"; he wants more, "safe from harm", and the safest place for his heart is in the Heaven, which he erased from his life long before.

It is hard to accept, but -finally- it happens (the songs ends in a thunder). God only saves: "won't Somebody love me?" he asked, knowing that there is the true answer, but his sins stopped him. Until now, when his tears (his repentance) is slowly, inevitably, come out.
