Lyric discussion by cseilerde 

If you watch the video of that song, you see a man who is about to cross a road. But he is rescued by another person from being driven over - since he didn't mind the traffic. As he realizes that he had almost died he sits down on a bench and becomes aware of the fact that life can end every moment.

That's why I think the song is not about a love with a woman but it's a cry to GOD to save him. He feels captive in his own life (I'm terrified of these four walls) and lonely in this world (These city walls ain’t got no love for me) but he wants to break out of his old life as he realizes that life can end immediately - and he screams for God (And oh I scream for you) and beseeches him to help him (Come please I’m callin’).

He recognizes that he is not good enough te be saved (Heaven's gates won't open up for me), but he asks God to help him to live a good life (teach me wrong from right), and he promises God: "I'll show you what I can be" and also "I'll leave this life behind me".

@cseilerde i've been recently been diagnosed with skin cancer. This reaction summaries how i'm feeling lately. Although my doctor told me i had an 95 -98% of survival.

It made me realise that i'm only a human like everybody else. "Say it if it's worth saving me"
