Lyrics
BLEED MYSELF CLEAN
Music: From These Ashes ? Lyrics: Jason Potter
?Pain is weakness leaving the body?
INTRO
VERSE 1:
Stick in the knife twist it slowly
Pull it out then do it again
Pick the scabs and make me bleed
You left a scar c?mon do it again
Yeah you scarred me ? c?mon do it again
CHORUS: no vox
INTRO
VERSE 2:
I?ve been at too many funerals
The tears I?ve cried overfill my cup
Hating life not wanting to live
Cause I lost my father and my brother
Yeah you took ?em both ? you stole my loved ones
CHORUS:
I?VE GOTTA BLEED MYSELF CLEAN
WASH OUT ALL THE IMPURITIES
EVERYTHING YOU DID TO ME
ERASE ALL THE MEMORIES - repeat
BRIDGE
CHORUS x 2
