Bleach on skin (versione 2)

Verse

Slept on a couch made of blankets where the sun don't shine

Floor's a thin layer of tile over cold concrete line

Borrowed your toothbrush when mine was worn down to nothing

Rinse it under ice water till the grit turns into singing

Your sister said we smell like copper when we ride together

Pre-Chorus

How many miles until the city starts to feel like home?

Every mile is one more hour that I'm not alone

Chorus

Bleach on skin, burn it clean

Watch the streets turn yellow then

Dirt don't stick around here long when you're already gone

Bleach on skin, sun's a brand new song

Hold my hand till the whole city shines

Verse 2

Ate your grandma's cooking for three days straight

Tasted like forgiveness every time we sat at the plate

Rode with you in silence through the morning rain

Not one word spoken and still I know exactly where to go again

Pre-Chorus

How many miles until the city starts to feel like home?

Every mile is one more hour that I'm not alone

Chorus

Bleach on skin, burn it clean

Watch the streets turn yellow then

Dirt don't stick around here long when you're already gone

Bleach on skin, sun's a brand new song

Hold my hand till the whole city shines

Bridge

We don't need a map to find our way through this place

Every stoplight is a sign pointing us back to each other's face

I'm not running from nothing, I'm just running with you now

That's what they call a brand new kind of home somehow
