Dirty Hands Lyrics

Wash your dirty hands, 'cause you've had them all over

me. Scrub with Brillo pads, but I know you'll never come

clean. And your friends say you're the victim, I keep

hearin' that I was wrong; it's like my eight years were

all one big con 'cause I, 'cause I said we'd be forever,

and I know I made that change. Now we can't even be

together even though you know that right now I could use

the friend to talk to. These days my needs don't mean

anything. Eyes are never dry since the night you ran when

I asked for help. Talk of suicide made you wish you'd

invested in someone else. And I know you touched my heart

and drew back a crippled fist, but I need to hear the

kind lips I kissed for years. And I said we'd be forever,

and I know I made that change. Now we can't even be

together long enough to let resentment go away. I thought

things had settled; I guess things'll rise to fall. And

our history misled me, so I was too comfortable. 'Cause

you were so dutiful, I figured I'd always have it made;

and then suddenly you're willing to trade losses for the

saves. And right now I could use a friend to talk to, but

these days my needs don't mean anything. Your brand new

friends have me all wrong; tell them how I always mean

well. I feel the wedge they drive, so right now I'm

pissed as hell. And I could use a friend to talk to.

These days my needs don't mean anything.
