I'm going down
  Won't you help me
  Save me from myself
  I hear the sound of the memory
  Maybe time will tell
    Suddenly my life is like a river
  Taking me places I don't want to go
  But like all good men who swin too well
  It takes all thet I have just to cry for help
  Then that voice in my head tells me no
    I'm going down
  Won't you help me
  Save me from myself
  I hear the sound of the memory
  Maybe, who can tell ?
    Let me live my life beside 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
    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
