Afterlife - Forgiven lyrics

FORGIVEN I wrote my name in the sand beside the ocean In the morning it had all been washed away The water had no memory of my visit My slate was clean and I wanted it that way I want to be forgiven like the sand along the coastline Let the waters wash all my past away Everything I've ever said Everything I've done All I'm asking for is to be...Forgiven Wrote my confession on a page made out of paper Tore it up and threw it in the fire Watched the ashes swirl into the moonlight Watched my sins dissolve into the sky Oh, I want to be forgiven like the paper in the fire Let the winds blow all my mortal sins away Everything I've ever said Everything I've done All I'm asking for is to be...Forgiven
