Wash the dirty away
Scratch it away
Make me shiny again
Make me new again
Cut the dirty away
Scrub it away
Make me clean again
Make me rosy again
Medicate the dirty away
Think it away
Make me whole again
Make me feel again
Dream the dirty away
Drown it away
Make me sane again
Make me, me again.

Lying on the shower floor
Cold, Ice cold water
It didn't wash me down
Hoped to melt away
Pulse beating against the tile
Throbbing in my palm
The pounding isn't mine
The cold tile floor is more alive than me
Run my hand against the door
Push myself into the world
Let the water pound my face once more
Place the Razor off to the side
Not this time...
