Elephant Ride - Wash Me

Tell me I can do this
It's only, sex it's only progress
Shut my eyes
Plunge the world, the stranger
This threshold cracks
The rosy alcove
This threshold cracks

Roaming I'll be wearing a broken coat
A broken look
It's not the same as when he calls
I don't recall the sound of my name
It sounds like his instead
I'm still afraid of the dark
Afraid to ask
Help me with this space I'm renting

Stand in now our pissed in shower
This will all come out in the wash
My survival
Not my child
This will all come out in the wash
If I'm changed
If I've borrowed
Oh, what a better friend am I
No one ever misses that

Slowly I can do this
This phantom had the sense to smell it
So if you want to play god, then play god
But not from around the source of my guilt
For my hands soak in it first
In bed, where I can be anything
I stained my clothes
Lost more than I thought I could win

Stand in now our pissed in shower
This will all come out in the wash
My survival
Not my child
This will all come out in the wash
If I'm changed
If I've borrowed
Oh, what a better friend am I
No one ever misses that
