These Filthy Hands

歌詞

Haphazardly, tumbling hard Fall right down, laugh out loud All in the scheme of things, we're all looking up growing tall It's like pulling one hair (You are what you are to me) With wet fingers (In my eyes you're a star) Petroleum jelly (You're something I'll never be) And watch the rain dance (You're something, I'm frightened of) I've got to get clean The rain will cleanse me And I've got to wash these filthy hands Because it's all just a futile plan That'd mean I'd have to believe again It's like a career to breathe An existence I can't conceive Emotionless as in slug in my Imagined oblivion You would swear (It's as much fun) That I could Walk and talk (As poking at a nerve) But I doubt you will ever Ever prove enough (Smartest kid is stupid) (No one wants to fail) (But no one wants to work) (Vocabulary test is graded On a curve) Ever prove enough (Word is never heard) I've got to get clean The rain will cleanse me (I doubt you'll ever prove it!) And I've got to wash these filthy hands (I doubt you'll ever prove it!) All these thoughts and feelings Are for naught unappealing So you expect them To dull and fade Still they remain (x2) Caught Waiting for the Rain Time devours life With my soul as the defendant Don't catch me if I fall I may have jumped You never know You don't know me at all At all All these thoughts and feelings Are for naught unappealing So you expect them To dull and fade Still they remain (x2) Because it's all just a futile plan That'd mean I'd have to believe again It's like a career to breathe An existence I can't conceive Emotionless as in slug in my Imagined oblivion You would swear (It's as much fun) That I could Walk and talk (As poking at a nerve) But I doubt you will ever Ever prove enough (Smartest kid is stupid) (No one wants to fail) (But no one wants to work) (Vocabulary test is graded On a curve) Ever prove enough (Word is never heard) All these thoughts and feelings Are for naught unappealing So you expect them To dull and fade Still they remain (x2) Caught Waiting for the Rain Time devours Life Waiting for the rain Time devours life
