Going under

Tonight I will dive underwater
And meet a man in white
He has been waiting for a while
At the river side

I don't know how to dive
But he will teach me right
So I just hold my breath like
I hold on to his hand

My head waves with confusion
My body crumbles with pain
Soon to be washed away
just like sin

I have to admit I am scared
Change always brought a fear
And this time it means losing
losing something dear

Tonight I will dive underwater
I am to young they might say
But can you really be to youthful to be safed
Didn't he want me to be like a child?
