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
