Until It's Washed Away

is it just a dream
never knowing what I mean
that seemed to be so real
made me question how I feel

talking to a wall
you don't know me at all
dusting on a grave
something I could not save

(chorus) thought it was you when I turned my head
                  but it's the grim reaper now I'm dead
                  I couldn't walk away
                  from what I heard you say

                  now it seems that it's all through
                  what was old now is new
                  until it's washed away
                  by tomorrow or yesterday
                  until it's washed away


Sundays are left undone
a race cannot be won
I'll keep it to myself
how the clown really felt

(chorus)
