Cold bitter hands Cold bitter nights I can feel the daylight rising A shake in the ground A split in the skies I can feel a new tide rising Will it wash me clean? Will it wash me clean? Ran after wrong But wrong isn't right I'm giving up my trying A shot through the dark Show me the light I'm laying down my fighting Will it wash me clean? Will it wash me clean? Will it wash me clean? Will it wash me clean? Will it wash me clean? Will it wash me clean? Will it wash me clean? Will it wash me clean?

Cocaine, heroin, I never use speed, I never put the needle in. Bad sex, heavy debts, It's too late to run when they come and snap your legs.

Bridge: An' if you wanna get on, you gotta keep your business clean. [x4] (Keep it clean!) [Solo]

Even if I was lonely, even if I was broke Even if all the dogs in the pound let me know Sayin', "It's never over, it never ends" Grab the guns and the ammo, let us descend To the darkest of prisons, and break their defense We will rattle the cages, rules will be bent Oh, remind us our days are all numbered not spent And peace, it comes easy, like mist on a ridge Breathin' in, breathin' out, it's all in my mouth Gives me hope that I'll bleed somethin' worth bleedin' out Breathin' in, breathin' out, it's all in my mouth Gives me hope that I'll bleed somethin' worth bleedin' out All the worries folks tell us, to break all our ties To our families and loved ones, we leave when we fly To these cities we think we need in our lives Oh, you Manhattan jungle, you tangle our pride Breathin' in, breathin' out, it's all in my mouth Gives me hope that I'll bleed somethin' worth bleedin' out Breathin' in, breathin' out, it's all in my mouth Gives me hope that I'll bleed somethin' worth bleedin' out All the buildings, they lean and they smile down on us And they shout from they roof tops, words we can't trust Like, "You're dead, you are tired, you've ruined, you're dust" Oh, you will amount to nothin', like tanks full of rust But we scream back at them from below on the street All in unison, we sing, "Our times, been redeemed We are all of the beauty, that has not been seen We are full of the color, that's never been dreamed" Well, nothin' we need ever dies Well, nothin' we need ever dies Well, nothin' we need ever dies Breathin' in, breathin' out, it's all in my mouth Gives me hope that I'll bleed somethin' worth bleedin' out Breathin' in, breathin' out, it's all in my mouth Gives me hope that I'll bleed somethin' worth bleedin' out Breathin' in, breathin' out, it's all in my mouth Gives me hope that I'll bleed somethin' worth bleedin' out Breathin' in, breathin' out, it's all in my mouth Gives me hope that I'll bleed somethin' worth bleedin' out
