Get Clean

from Heat Sin Water Skin by BettySoo

lyrics

Been nursing dust on my shoes
Didn’t want to shake these blues
Been fighting better judgment
Fighting what I know to be true

This darkness burning a hole
Heart wants to shake it, skin wants to hold on
Be better if I quit it
I’ve never done what I was told

It’s time to get clean
It’s time to get clean
Take what’s hidden and make it seen

Say love’s like shotgun spray
One pellet kills the snake
I’m not picking up that gun
Sometimes I like to hear rattles shake

It’s time to get clean
It’s time to get clean
Take what’s hidden and make it seen

Pull the curtains down
Throw the doors open
Strip the bed, turn every light on
Step in the river, let it cover
Let go when you go under

It’s time to get clean
It’s time to get clean
Take what’s hidden and make it seen
It’s time to get clean
