From the recording Full Bore
Lyrics
In the Wash
By Ted Horrell
Try to keep it to yourself
Keep your thoughts to yourself
Keep to yourself
Keep it all to yourself
You can toss and turn
But it keeps on rolling by you
It’ll all come out in the wash
It’s in the light that I find
That in the dark I can’t see
Try to leave it all behind
But still it follows me
And I can’t shake the thought
Cause it’s stuck to me good
All the lies I have wrought
I never thought that I could
You can toss and turn
But it keeps on rolling by you
It’ll all come out in the wash
Well it’s harder than I thought
To atone for my sins
I don’t do what I ought
Will the cycle never end
You can toss and turn
But it keeps on rolling by you
It’ll all come out in the wash
