Wash You Away Lyrics
In the shower
Hot water scalding
I can still feel you
And my skin's crawling
I'm dirty right down to my heart
It's a horrible sensation
You said trust you I could trust you
Then you used me you used me
In some selfish act
Of gratification
Now I just wanna wash you away
And cleanse myself of all this pain
I need to cry I could die
I feel so stained
This just can't be what love is
Now I need to wash you all away
Wash you away
What I gave last night
I can never give again
I always said I'm not like that
Now I don't know who I am
I know I can't undo it
Somehow I just gotta get through it
If I turn up the heat till I start to scream
Will I find my soul cleansing
In the scalding steam
Now I just wanna wash you away
And cleanse myself of all this pain
I need to cry I could die
I feel so stained
This just can't be what love is
I gotta wash you all away
Lying there on a blanket of temptation
My heart nearly bled to death
And now I'm dying for a little salvation
I just wanna wash you away
I just wanna wash you away
Now I just wanna wash you away
And cleanse myself of all this pain
I need to cry I could die
I feel so stained
This just can't be what love is
Now I need to wash you all away
Wash you away
Hot water scalding
I can still feel you
And my skin's crawling
I'm dirty right down to my heart
It's a horrible sensation
You said trust you I could trust you
Then you used me you used me
In some selfish act
Of gratification
And cleanse myself of all this pain
I need to cry I could die
I feel so stained
This just can't be what love is
Now I need to wash you all away
Wash you away
I can never give again
I always said I'm not like that
Now I don't know who I am
I know I can't undo it
Somehow I just gotta get through it
If I turn up the heat till I start to scream
Will I find my soul cleansing
In the scalding steam
And cleanse myself of all this pain
I need to cry I could die
I feel so stained
This just can't be what love is
I gotta wash you all away
My heart nearly bled to death
And now I'm dying for a little salvation
I just wanna wash you away
And cleanse myself of all this pain
I need to cry I could die
I feel so stained
This just can't be what love is
Now I need to wash you all away
Wash you away

Having experienced something painfully similar to this, I find so much peace and comfort in this song. Knowing that someone can target the feelings of vulnerability that I experienced give me such a sense of solace. It's so strange how something as simple as relating to someone through a painful experience can make someone feel more worth in his or her life.
