Standing all alone with the water pouring down

I tried to wash away my iniquity

and as my tears spilled down my face

each one filled with pain

then and there I faced reality

 

I stood there frozen by the truth you spoke to me

for so long I'd been deceived

my salvation an open heart away

to my tears and fears you spoke and this is what you said:

 

Enter in my child

your slate's been wiped clean

dry your eyes my child

your life will never be the same

again

 

I thought I'd do it by my strength instead of by your will

but all I sowed in was grief and pain

and even though he spoke those lies

so easily to my face

I was shackled to my false faith

 

My tears weren't strangers to my eyes or to my cheeks

the floor no stranger to my knees

your city lights gleamed in my eyes like jewels near a flame

to my tears and fears you spoke

and this is what you said

 

Enter in my child

your slate's been wiped clean

dry your eyes my child

your life will never be the same

again...
