After The Fall

Verse 1
If you could predict the future
Would you have chosen a different path?
Does that really matter even after you have fallen?
It's always inevitable
It would have happened anyway
But I guess the sooner, the better so you can change your life

Verse 2
You live, you learn
And mistakes are unavoidable
If they were then everyone would be flawless
But that doesn't mean you don't have to know the rules
You're responsible for everything you do or don't do

Verse 3
Guilt can consume you like a virus and kill you
But there's a cure to eradicate it from your body
What you need to do is confess
Admit what you have done wrong
That is the first step to take
One day you can break away from the shackles
That have been placed upon you
And then your life will never be the same again
After the fall, you can become whole again

Bridge 1
There's so many questions you have to ask yourself
And you don't know where to begin
You don't look scared, but I know you are
Not knowing something can be frightening

Chorus
After the fall you will want to be redeemed
For all of the sins you have committed
And you hope that you will be forgiven
To be cleansed is what you want to achieve
