LYRICS

Withdrawn, muscles all tense

Nothing flows for the self-obsessed

Feel all washed up, feel all washed up, feel all washed up, feel all washed up

 

Restless, can't sit still

A mental state, or a physical ill

Toxic, bones all cracked

Step on a bus, get a panic attack

 

It's all that you took me so high

Now getting out of bed is enough to make me cry

Saps all my energy

That's how it used to be

You came just in time

 

Feel all washed up, feel all washed up

Need a wash up, need a wash up, need a wash up, need a wash up

Need a wash, need a wash, need a wash, need a wash

Need a wash up, need a wash up

 

Restless, muscles all ache

So tense, tense, watch me shiver and shake

Not a dance but a scream by the body at the stake

Pierce my heart, something's gonna break

Pierce my heart, something's gonna break

 

Days when you cannot deny

Crawling out of bed is enough to make you cry

That's how it used to be before you came by

 

Screwed up at school

Ate bad food

Too many T.V. viewers live in you

I'm finished

 

Need a wash up, need a wash, need a wash

Need a wash up, need a wash, need a wash

Too much to take, I'm overcome

So wash me up with a loving touch

Too much to take, I'm overcome

So wash me up with a loving touch

Too much to take, I'm overcome

So wash me up with a loving touch

Too much to take, I'm overcome

So wash me up with a loving touch

 

Need a wash up, need a wash

Need a wash , need a wash

Need a wash up, need a wash

Need a wash , need a wash

Need a wash up, need a wash

Need a wash , need a wash
