“All the mistakes I've made, That caused others pain, I could have done without. All my foolish pride, The things I want to hide, Have already been forgot. They're all behind you, They'll never find you, They shall return no more. ... Sins are forgotten, Sunk to the bottom, Resting on the ocean…” quote by José N. Harris

““All the mistakes I've made, That caused others pain, I could have done without. All my foolish pride, The things I want to hide, Have already been forgot. They're all behind you, They'll never find you, They shall return no more. ... Sins are forgotten, Sunk to the bottom, Resting on the ocean floor. My careless misdeeds, All my thoughtless greeds, Can only haunt me now. They've been wiped away, By a soul so brave, And so they are no more. My memories My wrongful deeds Have gone away forever more. Sins are forgotten Sunk to the bottom Resting on the ocean floor.””
