lyrics

Too much clutter in my head
Got no room to move inside my brain
These thoughts are heavier than lead
Time to sort things out, time to rearrange

Cleaning out my emotions
Throwing away the blame
Cleaning out my emotions
Time to wash away the pain

Gotta throw away these blues
Too much guilt and too much shame
Gotta heal these open wounds
Time to realize forgiveness is the way

Cleaning out my emotions
Throwing away the blame
Cleaning out my emotions
Time to wash away the pain

I am coming clean
I am coming clean

Cleaning out my emotions
Throwing away the blame
Cleaning out my emotions
Time to wash away the pain
