Clean (Third Verse Album Version) - Smalltown Poets
Clothed in the common and profane
And the tendency for
Independence runs through every vein
Self aware bare before you at the water side
Afraid to take the step into the tide
Oh I feel so obscene
Knowing I am only clean
Because you promised me
I'm clean
Wash me I am clean
Called apart
Never has meant loneliness
But it feels that way
Any day I'd rather not confess
So take away the part of me
That forgets the price of grace
I have only one hope to erase
Every failure I have seen
And I am only clean
Because you promised me
I'm clean
Wash me I am clean
And ready for the world
Thank you thank you thank you thank you
Thank you thank you thank you thank you
I am clean because you promised me
I'm clean
Wash me I am clean
And ready for the world
I'm clean because you promised me
I'm clean
Wash me I am clean
And ready for the world
Ready for the world
Ready for the world
Ready for the world
Ready for the world
I'm ready for the world
