The Cleansing

Like a ship on untamed oceans I'm lost without a trace Clouds in their gentle motions Mock me with their grace And I watch the fading sunset As the waves come crashing in I hope the sea will cleanse me From the pain within In seas of sin, I lost my soul Never to be found A life astray, without control Sinking to the ground And I watch the fading sunset As the waves come crashing in I hope the sea will cleanse me From the pain within And on the next day's morning I shall be offered to the sea To wash away my guilt forever And end my misery
