Coming Clean - Aaron Pritchett

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

What i worked so hard to hide

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 lieÂ… 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
