Lyrics Aaron Pritchett – Coming Clean
Text:
I finally decided late last night
I had to get some laundry off my mind
The weight of the world on my shoulder
So I told her
It seemed like a good idea at the time
Why does coming clean feel so dirty
It all came out in the wash but I’m still filthy
I thought no more nights of losing sleep
But the guilt keeps eating away at me
Why does it feel so dirty
Coming clean
A million tears and just as many questions
She wanted to know about every indiscretion
She couldn’t have been any colder
Couldn’t hold her
Even though I tried and tried
They say the truth will set you free
That’s a lie… that’s a lie
I know that I can’t unsay what I said
It just all went so much better in my head
Why does coming clean feel so dirty
It all came out in the wash but I’m still filthy
I thought no more nights of losing sleep
But I toss and turn, I can’t break free
Why does it feel so dirty
Coming clean
