Silent wave coming down on me
Washing out the lie
Living inside me
Life's not hard
Now I'm on tv
This sudden twist of fate

I am direct salvation
Just send in your donation
I can promise that you'll be saved

Forgive me, world
I'm just a man who's lost his way
Forgive me, these two words I pray
It's time to make a change

Yesterday was a different day
Thought I knew the answer
A vision in my mind

Search my soul
And then you will find
A shelter for my pain

The truth is in the open
And now my heart has spoken
Hoping maybe you'll hear my cry

Forgive me, world
I'm just a man who's lost his way
Forgive me, these two words I pray
It's time to make a change

Forgive me, world
I'm just a man who sins today
Forgive me, these two words I pray
My faith is still the same

Maybe I can't change the past
Maybe love can bring us back
Maybe we can try and start again.

Forgive me, world
