"Clean" Lyrics

Clean Lyrics (1989 Album)

Written by Taylor Swift & Imogen Heap

The drought was the very worst
When the flowers that we'd grown
Together died of thirst
It was months and months of back and forth
You're still all over me like I wine-stained dress
I can't wear anymore
Hung my head as I lost the war
And the sky turned to black like a perfect storm

Chorus:
Rain came pouring down
When I was drowning
That's when I could finally breathe
By morning
Gone was any trace of you
I think I am finally clean

There was nothing left to do
And the butterflies turned to dust
That covered my whole room
So I punched a hole in the roof
I let the flood carry away
All my pictures of you
The water filled my lungs
I screamed
So loud but no one heard a thing

Chorus

10 months sober
I must admit
Just because you're clean
Don't mean you miss it
10 months older
I won't give in
Now that I'm clean
I'm never gonna risk it

The drought was the very worst
When the flowers that we'd grown
Together died of thirst

Chorus

Chorus

Finally clean
I think I'm finally clean
I think I'm finally clean
