clean (emlyn’s version)

[Verse 1] The drought was the very worst (Ah-ah, ah-ah) When the flowers that we'd grown together died of thirst It was months and months of back and forth (Ah-ah, ah-ah) You're still all over me like a wine-stained dress I can't wear anymore [Pre-Chorus] Hung my head as I lost the war And the sky turned black like a perfect storm [Chorus] Rain came pouring down When I was drownin', that's when I could finally breathe And by mornin', gone was any trace of you I think I am finally clean [Verse 2] There was nothin' left to do (Ah-ah, ah-ah) When the butterflies turned to dust that covеred my whole room So I punched a holе in the roof (Ah-ah, ah-ah) Let the flood carry away all my pictures of you [Pre-Chorus] The water filled my lungs I screamed so loud, but no one heard a thing [Chorus] Rain came pourin' down When I was drownin', that's when I could finally breathe And by mornin', gone was any trace of you I think I am finally clean [Post-Chorus] Oh, I think I am finally clean Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah I think I am finally clean Ah-ah-ah [Bridge] Ten months sober, I must admit Just because you're clean, don't mean you don't miss it Ten months older, I won't give in Now that I'm clean, I'm never gonna risk it [Break] The drought was the very worst, ah-ah, ah-ah When the flowers that we'd grown together died of thirst (Ah) [Chorus] Rain came pourin' down When I was drownin', that's when I could finally breathe And by mornin', gone was any trace of you I think I am finally clean [Post-Chorus] Yeah, I think I am finally clean Ah-ah, ah-ah I think I am finally clean [Outro] The drought was the very worst, ah-ah, ah-ah Now the space I used to feel with you it doesn't hurt
