Oh please let it rain today
This city is so filthy like my mind in ways
Oh it was the time like a clean new taste
Smiling eyes before me and tears from my face
Wash my love (x2)
Wash my love yeah
Sin for sale buying just a need
Just who planted all the devils seeds
And what's the truth and the truth that lies at home
It's on the inside and I can't get it off yeah
Wash my love (x2)
Wash my love yeah
What's clean is pure but hey
I'm white on the outside though I stray
What she don't know today might kill us both tomorrow
Bring it back someday
Bring it back bring it back back to to the clean form to the pure form
Wash my love (x8)
Ooh

Hold on to the thread
The currents will shift
Glide me towards
You know something's left
And we're all allowed
To dream of the next
Oh ohh of the next time we touch
Oooh (x3)
You don't have to stray
The oceans away
Waves roll in my thoughts
Hold tight the ring
The sea will rise
Please stand by the shore
Oh oh oh I will be
I will be there once more
Oooh (x3)
Uh huh oh (x2)

Don't even think about reachin' me I won't be home

Aah don't even think about gettin' inside
Voices in my head ooh voices
I got scratches all over my arms
One for each day since I fell apart
I did oh what I had to do if there was a reason it was you
Footsteps in the hall it was you you oh
Pictures on my chest it was you it was you
Hey I did a what I had to do oh and if there was a reason
Oh there wasn't no reason no
And if there's something you'd like to do
Oh just let me continue to blame you
A footsteps in the hall it was you you oh
Pictures on my chest it was you you oh

Hey (x25)
She scratches a letter into a wall made of stone
Maybe someday another child won't feel as alone as she does
It's been two years and counting since they put her in this place
She's been diagnosed by some stupid fuck and mommy agrees
Whoa yeah
Why go home (x3)
She seems to be stronger but what they want her to be is weak
She could play pretend she could join the game boy
She could be another clone ooh yeah
Now why go home (x4)

Whoa ooh
Why go home (x4)
What you taught me put me here don't come visit mother mother yeah

Stick it deep stick the people this is deep

Ponders his maker ponders his will
To the street below he just ain't nothin'
But he's got a great view and he sinks the needle deep yeah can't touch the bottom
In too deep yeah can't touch the bottom
Ooh on the edge of a know nothin' town
Feelin' quite superior the age had come
To the sky above he just ain't nothin'
But he's got a great view and he sinks the burning mask deep
Wow can't touch the bottom
In too deep yeah wh huh can't touch the bottom
In too deep
Ohhh Ohhh yea

On the edge of a Christmas clean love
Young virgin from heaven oh visiting him
To the man above her she just ain't nothin'
And she doesn't like the view

But he sinks himself deep

In too deep yeah oh can't touch the bottom
