"How Do I Get Clean?" lyrics

Your voice was the soundtrack to August
But you turned 180 in 90 degrees
And honey, it's been a lonely autumn
Empty space in bed with me

Dirty dishes in the sink
Dirty talking up 'til three
You became my favorite thing
Now I see

You're the wine stain spilled on my t-shirt
Like a scratch on a brand new car
You're the first to say those three words
Did you know they'd break my heart?
How'd you make "I love you" feel like such a filthy thing?
Wanna wash the memory out
How do I get clean?

Everyone's asking me what happened
I tell them they know the same as me
I guess there's no beauty in disaster
But that's what keeps you close to me, to me

Dirty dishes in the sink
Dirty talking up 'til three
You became my favorite thing
Now I see

You're the wine stain spilled on my t-shirt
Like a scratch on a brand new car
You're the first to say those three words
Did you know they'd break my heart?
How'd you make "I love you" feel like such a filthy thing?
Wanna wash the memory out
How do I get clean?

Now I make a game of
Forgetting your name
I try to erase the feeling of you
But I can't escape the hell that I chased, I
Just wanna be clean of you

You're the wine stain spilled on my t-shirt
Like a scratch on a brand new car
You're the first to say those three words
Did you know they'd break my heart?
How'd you make "I love you" feel like such a filthy thing?
Wanna wash the memory out
How do I get clean?
