The moonlight steals the night from the sun
Down by the river where the sand turns to mud
The fog hides the water deep and dark
A place to face my sin and make a new start
I'm told the holy water can heal my blinded eyes
I pray I'm not wading through a lake of lies
So I, I dive
Uncertain to revive
Soul submerged, spirit purged and returned to life
I try to arrive clean on the other side
Free from the demons I've untied
I'm told the holy water
Absolves a man of his crimes
But now I'm drowning in a lake of lies
I'm told the holy water can heal my blinded eyes
I'm told the holy water absolves a man of his crimes
I'm told the holy water should wash away all the pain
As I say my goodbyes
Down at the bottom of this lake of lies
