Ghosts & Wild Things

from Jericho by Jonathan Atkins

/

lyrics

We didn't have to be there,
We didn't have to separate our homes.
We didn't have to tear down the wall,
Jericho stood lovely on it's own.

I'm still hung up about all the things you did,
While you're forgiven for the things you did.
But my walls stand 100 feet high now,
And my hearts guarded by a ghost of sin.

I can stand on top of my watch tower,
And stare out for miles at mountains,
Wondering why I've spent so long,
Constructing myself a safe home,
Instead of wandering and finding myself among the nature,
And out where the wild things are.

We didn't have to be there,
We didn't have to separate our homes.
We didn't have to tear down the wall,
Jericho stood lovely on it's own.

about

Jonathan Atkins Mississauga, Ontario

"A singer-songwriter with a devastating ear for harmonies and a delicate touch with lyrics that slide perfectly into a horrid winter. There's a definite Celtic touch, but far sweeter than something like Mumford & Sons." - Andrew Fifield (Metro News)
