Wash Away Lyrics

Pick myself up from the gutter again

A loser a wretch my own worst friend

Caught in a web of unyielding cries

A terrible friend beneath dark skies

I'm drowning in the depths of my own shame

Regret and sorrow they call my name

I've hurt those I love left scars unseen

In the mirror a reflection I don't want to glean

Let the rain wash away everything I don't want to be

Cleanse my soul set me free

For the courage to earn forgiveness I plead

Let the storm purge the darkness plant the seed

Why can't I just be the best version of me?

I've made mistakes too many to count

My conscience weighs heavy I can't surmount

I've hurt the ones I hold dear

Regret and sorrow my constant fear

How can you still see the good in me?

Through all my faults how can you still believe?

In the wreckage of my mistakes theres surely no hope?

In the darkness of my soul I can't seem to cope

I can't seem to cope!

Let the rain wash away everything I don't want to be

Cleanse my soul set me free

For the courage to earn forgiveness I plead

Let the storm purge the darkness plant the seed

Why can't I just be the best version of me?
