Wash It Away
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Wash it in the sea let it soak all night
Wash it in the sea let the saltwater wash it away
Soak it in bleach till its white on white
Soak it in bleach till the blood just washes away
Hang it in the wind let it blow all night
Hang it up high, let the high wind blow it away
Hang it in the wind let the sun burn bright
Hang it in the wind till the blood just washes away
I have waited wasted years
For the child that's come and gone today
I wasted all this fear
How can I just turn and wash it away
If I can then I will wash it away
If she can then she will wash it away
If I can then I will wash it away
If she can then she will wash it away
Forty years spent one by one
Forty years of life just slipping away
What I'd give for a firstborn son
Forty years of blood just washing away
I have waited wasted lives
I have waited long enough I'd say
Say what about, what about, what about, what about
How can I just turn and wash it away
If I can then I will wash it away
If she can then she will was it away
If I can then I will wash it away
If she can then she will was it away
So send me an angel
Send me the ghost that I was
Just send me an angel
Send me the ghost that I was
That I was, that I am. I will wash it away
She will wash it away
I will wash it away if I can then I will, I will and I will
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, hey yeah, yeah, yeah.
Hey yeah, yeah. If I can then I will wash it away
