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
