| Forgive me now
|
| For I have sold my soul for gold
|
| Washed up on shore
|
| A thousand miles away from home
|
| Just as I begin to settle in to these skin and bones, alone
|
| I find the answers to questions I have never known
|
| Is there life beyond the grave?
|
| And will I make the same mistakes, day after day?
|
| There must be a better way
|
| Running from time to try and keep myself alive
|
| Release my pride to keep from pushing the light aside
|
| Now as I begin to let this in
|
| I must keep the best in mind
|
| And remove myself from the things that are wasting my time
|
| I know that one of these days
|
| I’ll finally see you face to face at the golden gates
|
| Will you take me or will I fade into the grave?
|
| I know these words won’t hold any weight
|
| But please don’t turn away
|
| Don’t turn away from me
|
| Is there life beyond the grave?
|
| And will I make the same mistakes, day after day?
|
| There must be a better way
|
| I know that one of these days
|
| I’ll finally see you face to face at the golden gates
|
| Will you take me or will I fade into the grave?
|
