Clean Sheets (Reissue Bonus Track)

(album: Lead Sails Paper Anchor - 2007)

Clean sheets mean a lot
To a guy who sleeps on the floor
I wanted your love
And a shelf in your dresser drawer
You tucked me in
Stopped my tossing and turning
But I turned back the covers
And saw those sheets are dirty

Even though you'll never come clean
You know it's true
Those sheets are dirty
And so are you

The warmth of a bed
To a guy who sleeps on the floor
Was enough to perpetuate
All the lies I heard before
And now I want to hold you
Gotta hold my pillow instead
'Cause my pillow will never lie
Or be with a stranger in my bed

Even though you'll never come clean
You know it's true
Those sheets are dirty
And so are you

Where's the love I was looking for?
It's out the door
I'm afraid to see you anymore
So it's back on the floor
'Cause those sheets are dirty

Woke up this morning
Alone on the floor
Thinking about those clean sheets
And the way it was before
When I looked in the mirror
I saw your face and thought of the past
But now I know how dirty you are
I took my fist and smashed the glass

Even though you'll never come clean
You know it's true
Those sheets are dirty
And so are you

Even though you'll never come clean
You know it's true
Those sheets are dirty
And so are you

Those sheets are dirty
Those sheets are dirty
Those sheets are dirty
