clean sheets

clean sheets mean a lot

to a guy who sleeps on the floor

i wanted your love

an a shelf in your dresser draw

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 that sleeps on the floor

was enough to perpetuate. all the lies i heard before

i want to hold you

i hold my pillow instead

because my pillow will never lie

or be with a stranger in my bed. 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. those sheets are dirty.
