The Swellers - Clean Slate lyrics

rate me

No more dreams of the southwest<br />

I just got a taste<br />

And a little dust from every state<br />

Caught underneath my shoes<br />

That'll never wash away<br />

<br />

I'm no stranger to the rust<br />

We made this with our hands<br />

From a billion other grains of sand<br />

I'd rather have gray skies<br />

Spotlights can burn through any man<br />

<br />

Call it a clean slate<br />

Not just a mistake<br />

For all this time, all this time<br />

It may be different<br />

But I don't feel so bad now<br />

<br />

There are no promises out there<br />

Maybe I can't see straight<br />

It eventually evaporates<br />

Got a slight change of plans<br />

I'll call some good friends of mine<br />

I'm never going back<br />

Or at least for some time<br />

And first a train off track<br />

I'll come back like an avalanche<br />

<br />

Call it a clean slate<br />

Not just a mistake<br />

For all this time, all this time<br />

It may be different<br />

But I don't feel so bad now<br />

<br />

I'll find myself<br />

I'll find myself<br />

<br />

Call it a clean slate<br />

Not just a mistake<br />

For all this time, all this time<br />

It may be different<br />

But I don't feel so bad now<br />

<br />

Call it a clean slate<br />

Not just a mistake<br />

For all this time, all this time<br />

It may be different<br />

But I don't feel so bad now</
