Purge

I closed my eyes and hoped to forget But I still feel your hands 'round my neck You went away, but all of your chains And ropes holding me stayed in place

And I will never be Be washed and clean again I will never know Know the innocence

I can't purge you from me You're more than a poison I can force out Every word you told me left such a rancid taste in my mouth

I can't purge you, mmm [x4]

A hollow promise, and a hollow bed Your voice an alarm in my head How could you be gone for six months And still take the air from my lungs?

And I will never be Be washed and clean again I will never know Know the innocence

I can't purge you from me You're more than a poison I can force out Every word you told me left such a rancid taste in my mouth

I can't purge you, mmm [x4]
