Lyrics

I'm Clean

[Verse 1]

The temptation

Has always been, has always been

What lies behind the ice

The hot-blooded tramp inside your mind

Wear white gloves, but I'm no saint

Thought I was Grace Kelly, but just you wait

Yeah, I'm that bitch, your white witch

Na-na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na

[Pre-Chorus]

Clean, clear, and cold, through and through

All these disgusting things you do, you do, you do

[Chorus]

But not me (Not me)

I'm clean (I'm clean)

Please act upon me

No agency or complexity

Not a single feelin' inside of me

[Verse 2]

Tempted you with Turkish delight

Just to make you see the death inside

Ice so cold, a mirror it makes

Forced to see yourself inside these stakes

[Pre-Chorus]

Clean, clear, and cold, through and through

All these disgusting things you do, you do, you do

[Chorus]

But not me (Not me)

I'm clean (I'm clean)

Blank slate, just begging

A face without ambiguity

Not a single mark that mars me

[Bridge]

The bashful smile that begged, "Please no"

The hands that still wanted to know

There was never a fire, never desire

I killed myself to make you see your own perversity

[Chorus]

'Cause I'm clean (I'm clean)

You're free (You're free)

Please act upon me

No agency or complexity

Not a single feelin' inside of me

'Cause I'm clean (I'm clean)

You're free (You're free)

Blank slate, just begging

A face without ambiguity

Not a single mark that mars me
