Dirty

Settle down he said While I pick apart the pieces In my head And pull apart the words That he said And nitty gritty Underneath my fingernails Wash away the sweat and dirt Within my palms Just so I can finally say I'm clean And I can't say that it's the same Can't say that I'm the one to blame Cos I'm still underneath the barrier Still digging myself out And I don't wanna be dirty anymore It's not the same I don't wanna be picking at the faults In my skin Send me down to the water, and hold me under Until I break this facade I don't wanna be dirty anymore It's not the same And take it back I said I'd take everything back that I did To try and make me feel just a little More whole And beautiful at best, You know I always loved the things you said But this time I don't hear it And I can't say that it's the same Can't say that I'm the one to blame Cos I'm still underneath the barrier Still digging myself out And I don't wanna be dirty anymore It's not the same I don't wanna be picking at the faults in my skin Send me down to the water, and hold me under Until I break this facade I don't wanna be dirty anymore It's not the same
