Lyrics to Clean

I dont need to understand what this world is all about

I dont need to find a thing that will show me

There ain't much to think about

If I tell you what I did and I heal

All my sins will be absolved

But there aint nothing that I've done that I wouldn't

just leave unresolved

That's why I go to the river but the river don't wash me

clean

I dont need to understand what the world thinks of me

And I aint never going to chance because of something

that you will never be



I dont care about what you believe everything you tell me

that I'm not

I dont think that you can judge me

'Cause I'm not the only one you forgot

That's why I go to the river but the river don't wash me

clean

I dont need to understand what the world wants from me

I dont even want to know what you always wanted me to be

If you listen and you'll find that I never really cared

about what you think of me

And I fully comprehend that I never did became the man

you wanted me to be

That's why I go to the river

But the river don't wash me clean

Lord have mercy

The river won't wash me clean
