The drought was the very worst
When the flowers
that we'd grown together
died of thirst
It was months
and months of back-and-forth
You're still all over me
like a wine-stained dress
I can't wear anymore
Hung my head
as I lost the war
And the sky turned black
like a perfect storm
Rain came pouring down
When I was drowning
that's when I could
finally breathe
And by morning
gone was any trace of you
I think I am finally clean
There was nothing left to do
When the butterflies turned to dust
they covered my whole room
So I punched a hole in the roof
Let the flood carry away
all my pictures of you
The water filled my lungs
I screamed so loud
But no one heard a thing
Rain came pouring down
When I was drowning
that's when I could
finally breathe
And by morning
gone was any trace of you
I think I am finally clean
I think I am finally clean
I think I am finally clean
Ten months sober
I must admit
Just because you're clean
don't mean you
don't miss it
Ten months older
I won't give in
Now that I'm clean
I'm never gonna risk it
The drought was the very worst
When the flowers
that we'd grown together
died of thirst
Rain came pouring down
When I was drowning
that's when I could finally breathe
And by morning
gone was any trace of you
I think I am finally clean
Rain came pouring down
When I was drowning
that's when I could finally breathe
And by morning
gone was any trace of you
I think I am finally clean
finally clean
I think I am finally clean
I think I am finally clean
