Eldest 11
Grime
All the dirt and grime
Clean off daily
Looking for a heart that beats like mine
Don't lie to me
Tell me things like the waters fine
Oh there's things you want to say?
Say it too my fucking face!

You made me 2nd guess so many things
Now I'm breathing in the earth
Suffocating and lost
Because I dared to dream a dream
And I'm afraid of going nowhere
Buckling under the weight
But it's too late
No time to waste. The enemy’s at the gate

I gotta get clean. (Scrub the grime off)
Because no one is helping me
I gotta get clean. Ahh....Ahh....
I've been locked up in the chains
(The sun shines after the rain.)
Fast nights and going down in flames
Tonight's pleasure is tomorrow's pain
But I'll be laughing in the rain

It's you who signaled the change when I had no complaints
Say it's my fault
Your just adding fuel to the flames
Be a half-remembered name
I got no choice but I'll pick over your remains

You made me 2nd guess so many things
Suffocating and lost
Because I dared to dream a dream
And I'm not afraid anymore
I'm out of range
I've been there, done that before
Only whispers remain

I gotta get clean. (Scrub the grime off)
Because no one is helping me
I gotta get clean. Ahh....Ahh....
I've been locked up in the chains
(The sun shines after the rain.)
Fast nights and going down in flames
Tonight's pleasure is tomorrow's pain
But I'll be laughing in the rain
