Cleanse me


Cleanse my blood

For the lies I told

Cleanse my heart

For the meanness I did



Erase the rotten words

Out of my mouth

With a mountain spring

Wash them away



Take away

The harshness I said

Make it better

For what I did



It just had to be

This way, I am afraid

As she can't understand me

Any other way



It just makes her mad

When I love her

Write of her

And me



And how I was drowning

And needed a line

But instead I saw her

And felt happy



I am sorry

It is true

For this I couldn't lie

But she won't wake up



She's dead inside

And this truth

Is on me

She is mine no matter how it looks



And I can't escape

It's like death or deny

I chose death

Maybe I want it too bad



Maybe she's in there still

Somewhere deep

Hiding deep from me

And from her



And was just as rotten

As she can be

And I wonder why I can't eat

I feel sick



But I always do with her

And it makes me so sad

That after all this

She still can't be with herself
