To Be Forgiven

I'm going down, won't you help me?

Save me from myself, I hear the sound of a memory

Maybe time will tellSuddenly my life is like a river

Taking me places I don't want to go

But like all good men who swim too well

It takes all that I have just to cry for help

Then that voice in my head tells me, noI'm going down, won't you help me?

Save me from myself, I look around for a fantasy

Maybe, who can tell?Let me live my life beside the river

Take me to places where a child can grow

And then maybe, the boy inside will forsake me

Maybe, the child in me will just let me goI'm going down, the cold, cold water is rushing in

I'm going down and I would beg to be forgiven

If I knew my sin
