Video clip

I stand here by the western wall
Maybe a little of that wall stands inside us all
I shove my prayers in the crack
I've got nothing to lose, no one to answer back

All these years i've brought up for review
Wasn't taught this but i learned something new
And to answer the distant call
At the western wall

I've got a heart full of fear
And i offer it up on this altar of tears
Red dust settles deep in my skin
I don't know where it starts and where i begin

It's a crumbling pile of broken stones
It ain't much but it might be home
If i ever loved a place at all
It's the western wall

I don't know if god was ever a man
But if she was, i think i understand
Why he found a place to break his fall?
Near the western wall
