Cleaning up
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.
It's time
to take a shower
and wash away
the awful night before
obsenities memories
assumptions and foolery
wash away the awful night before
wash away the awful night before
Not just cleaning up my room
I'm cleaning up my life
or atleast the mess I made last night
re-tracing steps
running in circles
doing my best just
to figure out
Just how the point
I make ain't right
and maybe
theres a symbol
in these scabs
the ones on my wrists
finally coming off
The pain is all
but gone
The wounds are healed
but now I'm stuck here
with these scars
but now i'm stuck here
with these scars
I'm Not just cleaning up my room
I'm cleaning up my life
or atleast the mess I made last night
re-tracing steps
running in circles
trying
to figure out
Just how the point
I made ain't right
Yeah
Not just cleaning up my room
I'm cleaning up my life
or atleast the mess I made last night
re-tracing steps
running in circles
doing my best just
to figure out
Just how the point
I made ain't right
its how it ain't right
