Sinking Under

The lights went out

I could see my own grave

"God help me now"

Is all that I could bear to say

Hands reaching from the floor

My body's laying lifeless, while my spirit sinks below

If I could find a way back

I promise, I would never take my life for granted anymore

And I can change (and I can change)

Oh, the price I've paid (price I've paid)

To learn a lesson

Is it too late

To find redemption?

Honestly, I'm afraid

Of the answer

I admit, I'm ashamed

I'm sinking under

I'm sinking under

I swear, I never thought I would go down this road again

But everywhere I turn, leads me back to the same destination

I've been selfish, I'm pathetic

I was afraid of the commitment

But I'm not hopeless, I'm not toxic

I have a heart, I have a conscience

Oh

I've gone off the deep end

Oh, the price I've paid (price I've paid)

To learn a lesson

Is it too late (too late)

To find redemption?

Honestly, I'm afraid (I'm afraid)

Of the answer

I admit, I'm ashamed (ashamed)

I'm sinking under

God, please help me now

I'm sinking under guilt

Will you pull me out?

You've been living in sin

The voice in my head says I'll never win

Tarnishing yourself with substances

Playing the victim's how you live with yourself

Oh, the price I've paid

To learn a lesson

Is it too late (too late)

To find redemption?

Honestly, I'm afraid (I'm afraid)

Of the answer

I admit, I'm ashamed (ashamed)

I'm sinking under

I'm sinking under
