To Be Forgiven

[Verse 1]
I'm going down
Won't you help me?
Save me from myself
I hear the sound of a memory
Maybe time will tell

[Chorus]
Suddenly 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 no

[Verse 2]
I'm going down
Won't you help me?
Save me from myself
I look around for a fantasy
Maybe
Who can tell?

[Chorus]
Let me live my life beside the river (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 go

[Verse 3]
I'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
If I knew my sin
Save me
Save me
Save me
Save me
I'm going down
I'm going down
I'm going down
I'm going down
