I've made my confession
Paid the price for my crime
I make no concession
I've served my time
Carrying this weight around
Finally run to ground
Can't admit that I was wrong
Have to live with what I've done
My guilt goes on
My guilt goes on
Into the future
My guilt goes on
Drowning I washed
The blood off my hands
Now the future is calling
And I need one more chance
Have to live with what I've done
Through the years my guilt goes on
How I'm judged by history
Will make no difference to me
My guilt goes on
My guilt goes on
Into the future
My guilt goes on
Will you forgive but not forget
Ask me if I still regret
Don't feel any worse today
Than I was feeling yesterday
Into the future
Into the future
Nothing left in my defence
Can't reclaim my innocence
Cannot give you recompense
No way I can make amends
Can't admit that I was wrong
Years go by my guilt goes on
Have to live with what I've done
How long before my guilt has gone
My guilt goes on
My guilt goes on
Into the future
My guilt goes on
I've made my confession
Paid the price for my crime
I make no concession
I've served my time
Will you forgive but not forget
Ask me if I still regret
Don't feel any worse today
Than I was feeling yesterday
Into the future
My guilt goes on
