After The Fall

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


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


Bridge 2

Guilt can consume you like a virus and kill you

But there's a cure that eradicated 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


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
