Story Behind The Song
I wrote this song after I broke up with my girlfriend. I started dating and fell in love again but it is never quite the same. I always find the dirt but I am forever washed of love.
Song Description
I try so hard to avoid attachment but it always seems to find me. When it does, it never quite hits me the same way.

Lyrics
I failed to compare, you left in deceit
You walked away smiling, my heart stopped to bleed
Whispered in mind games, lied to my heart
You sold me a poem, and left me to starve
I wash my love away forevermore
I wash my love away forevermore
Cold as a beggar, swift as a thief
Stranded in questions, lost in belief
Words have less meaning now, trusting to hate
I wish to have dreams again, I wish to have faith
I wash my love away forevermore
I wash my love away forevermore
Oh my friend, it never ends, when I?m washed I?ll find the dirt again
Oh my friend, it never ends, when I?m washed I?ll find the dirt again
And I?m forever washed?
I wash my love away forevermore
I wash my love away forevermore
I wash my love away forevermore
I wash my love away, yeah
I wash that love away, wash that love away, and wash that love away?
