Swift, Taylor - Clean Lyrics






The drought was the very worst
When the flowers that we'd grown together died of thirst
It was months and months of back and forth
You're still all over me like a wine-stained dress I can't wear anymore

Hung my head as I lost the war
and the sky turned black like a perfect storm

Rain came pouring down when I was drowning
That's when I could finally breathe
And by morning gone was any trace of you,
I think I am finally clean

There was nothing left to do
When the butterflies turned to dust that covered my whole room
So I punched a hole in the roof
Let the flood carry away all my pictures of you

The water filled my lungs
I screamed so loud but no one heard a thing

Rain came pouring down when I was drowning
That's when I could finally breathe
And by morning gone was any trace of you,
I think I am finally clean
I think I am finally clean
Said I think I am finally clean

10 months sober, I must admit
Just because you're clean don't mean you don't miss it
10 months older, I won't give in
Now that I'm clean I'm never gonna risk it

The drought was the very worst
When the flowers that we'd grown together died of thirst

Rain came pouring down when I was drowning
That's when I could finally breathe
And by morning gone was any trace of you,
I think I am finally clean

Rain came pouring down when I was drowning
That's when I could finally breathe
And by morning gone was any trace of you
I think I am finally clean
Finally clean
Think I'm finally clean
Think I'm finally clean

    The deepest lyrics I heard.

    "When I was drowning, that's when I could finally breathe."

    Sometimes, when the thing that hurt us the most or the decision that hurt us badly are the things that help us realize we are more than what we been through. We are free to breath.

    hello to my verns. sorry selenators and swifties for making it so long before I made a decision. This song holds different meanings for different people and for me this song signifies to me the loss of a potential relationship which every girl dreams about. Can something or somebody drop the carbon copy of the rose gold diamond leaf ring into the Mediterranean Sea? After that, my boyfriend will drop the last remaining lavender amethyst ring into the middle of the Atlantic Ocean.

  56. J.... L....

    Ok what do I play next?

  57. J.... L....

    If I could bottle what I feel I’d have the workd convicted and addicted when you commit yourself to an idea your body heals and gives you a natural high so strong you won’t risk it for a fleeting chemical high...

  58. J.... L....

    So where are you? I don’t want to be stressin and obsesin over you if you cant if you don’t if you won’t just say no and let me go because I can’t wait for something that’s never gonna happen there is no excuse thy is is no ruse I want a flesh and blood muse I don’t want to live on this screen anymore

  59. J.... L....

    TayTay you can have anything you want if you want me take me but if you say I DO know you will never shake me my words are ever true never fake can I order the wedding cake? My oven’s set to bake I’m on fire 🔥 with desire for you so don’t play with heart 💔 are you mine? If so can we start?

  60. S.... I....

    i love this song as it seems to mean something different for everyone. i didn’t understand it properly for a while but shit happened and now it is one of the songs that has a meaning for me 💘

  80. d.... e....

    Taylor's fans know that her unreleased music is some of her best.

  81. V.... S....

    Every single time that I listen this song I feel completely lost at some feelings from the past.
    3 years ago I listened to 1989 for the first time and that time I met the love of my life and for a lot of reasons we couldn't be together and I remember when I realise that I really lost him I also realise that this song was the perfect match for that situation.
    we were always breaking up and then making up again, we were on this 'back and forth' for the last 3 years. I don't know when I'm gonna feel finally clean, but this song express exactly what we were.

    thank you t.s
    this is poetry. Your song is a masterpiece.

    V.... S....

    Veronica Sawyer Your comment is so relatable. Mine is long distance relationship. We were going back and forth for so long , and today we broke up . It was mutual. I cried a lot and he too. But sometimes, I guess you just need to let go. I am still so much in love with him though. And this song has been so helpful tbh.

  82. A.... ....

    When those memories come to my mind... this song makes me clean

  83. T.... S....

    this song is pure gold

  84. R.... T....

    so i punched a hole in the room

  85. A.... X....

    This song is so meaningful and it has this comforting vibe. Her voice is so adorable. Thank you @Taylor Swift for this masterpiece <3

  86. L.... ....

  87. A.... B....

    How is this so underrated. It's one of the best lyrical songs

  88. e.... s....

    I heard that Taylor Swift actually likes her less famous songs the best personally

    e.... s....

    id imagine even the artist gets fed up of hearing the same track over and over so that makes sense

    e.... s....

    Me either

  89. N.... M....

    Esta es una hermosas canción de Tay-Tay. Me encanta los coros

  90. F.... C....

    One of her best songs bye

  91. I.... C....

    8 meses...
    Y ni el viento ni la lluvia se llevan sus polaroids ni promesas...
    Anhelo escuchar mis gritos... Consiga repararme a mi misma... Y finalmente estar limpia...

  92. J.... C....

    gone was any trace of you.......

  93. P.... C....

    only 71 comments, well with mine 72.....😱😱

  94. T.... ....

    uma de suas melhores composições 💙

  95. a.... ....

    lyrically this is her best song

    a.... ....

    Probably because she co-wrote it with Imogen Heap who is a lyrical genius

    a.... ....

    lucyluwalker taylor is a lyrical genius as well. the power they hold together omg

    a.... ....

    a.... ....
