Clean - Everclear

I want you to stay the way you are, skinny legs and all

I know the time is coming when the boys will begin to call

I wish that I could hurt for you when you are learning how to fall

You are the reason that I am alive today

you are the reason that I have changed my life in a wonderful way

I can see the passion that is growing inside of you

I can see the sadness that throws a shadow down on everything you do I wish I was the man you thought I was

Back when life was new for you

You don’t know what it’s like to feel a love like this

You don’t know what it’s like to feel this kind of helplessness

You don’t know what it’s like to be weak

I hope you never know

I don’t want you to be like me I want you to be clean

Clean

You are going to find a reason to hate me someday

You are going to find a reason to push me away

You are going to find reasons to blame me for your pain

I hope you never lose the magic that is big inside of you

I hope you never do the ridiculous things that I used to do

I hope you never know my disease

Never being good enough

I don’t want you to be like me I want you to be clean

I want you to be clean
