Sweep the hair out of my face
Sweep the dust out of this place
Swept aside, I must confess
...I’m a mess
Wash the counters of debris
Wash away each memory
Awash with this regret
I’m not done yet
Tried to pretend
To accept we’re at the end
Tried to let this go
I woulda coulda shoulda, but I didn't
Tried hard to hide
But I can’t put this aside
Tried to let this go
I woulda coulda shoulda, but I didn't
I woulda coulda shoulda, but I didn't
Empty every cluttered bin
Empty out the trash again
Empty heart inside of me
I’m not free
Straighten up and breathe in deep
Straighten sheets where you would sleep
Run in circles, can’t think straight
I’m not great
