Anni – Stains

STAINS

Wasted days
in the haze
I was bored
I was playing games

Looking for
an easy cure
not to heal
but to numb the pain

That was then
you are now
'til the end
hold me down

Wash off these
stains, stains, stains, stains
wipe these fingerprints
of my past mistakes
soak me in your grace
...stains

This is me
this is my skin
so now you know
no need to pretend

Disarm me first
undress me then
shed a light
through my defence

'cause that was then
you are now
'til the end
hold me down

Wash off these
stains, stains, stains, stains
wipe these fingerprints
of my past mistakes
soak me in your grace
...stains

Been hiding my faults inside my coat
didn't let no thing, no body rock my boat
but that way my world stayed still
and I want you to rock my world!

As I acted flawless
I hurt myself even more
made myself so damn likeable
so dateable
I hated myself
outdated versions of myself!

Never fully committed
fear of missing out
fear of choosing
fear of being the one who gets hurt
or the one who hurts

That was then
you are now
'til the end
hold me down

Wash off these
stains, stains, stains, stains
wipe these fingerprints
of my past mistakes
soak me in your grace
...stains
