Priests - I'm Clean

The temptation
Has always been, has always been
What lies behind the ice
The hot-blooded tramp inside your mind
Wear white gloves, but I'm no saint
Thought I was Grace Kelly, but just you wait
Yeah, I'm that bitch, your white witch
Na-na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na

Clean, clear, and cold, through and through
All these disgusting things you do, you do, you do

But not me (Not me)
I'm clean (I'm clean)
Please act upon me
No agency or complexity
Not a single feelin' inside of me

Tempted you with Turkish delight
Just to make you see the death inside
Ice so cold, a mirror it makes
Forced to see yourself inside these stakes

Clean, clear, and cold, through and through
All these disgusting things you do, you do, you do

But not me (Not me)
I'm clean (I'm clean)
Blank slate, just begging
A face without ambiguity
Not a single mark that mars me

The bashful smile that begged, "Please no"
The hands that still wanted to know
There was never a fire, never desire
I killed myself to make you see your own perversity

'Cause I'm clean (I'm clean)
You're free (You're free)
Please act upon me
No agency or complexity
Not a single feelin' inside of me
'Cause I'm clean (I'm clean)
You're free (You're free)
Blank slate, just begging
A face without ambiguity
Not a single mark that mars me
