Lyrics
Oh yeah
Expression of affirmation or agreement.
Oh
Repetition of the affirmative expression.
Oh please let it rain today
Plea for rain, possibly as a metaphor for cleansing or renewal.
This city's so filthy like my mind in ways
Comparison of the city's dirtiness to the speaker's troubled thoughts.
Oh it was the time like a clean new taste
Reflecting on a past time that felt fresh and pure.
Smiling eyes before me
Recollection of someone with joyful eyes.
And tears from my face
Tears on the speaker's face, suggesting emotional pain.
Wash my love
Expression of a desire for the cleansing of love.
Wash my love
Repetition of the desire for love to be washed.
Wash my love, yeah
Continuation of the plea for the purification of love.
Sin for sale buying just a need just
Reference to sin being available for purchase, questioning the origin of evil.
Oh who planted all the devils seeds?
Wondering about the source of negative influences.
And what's the truth? And the truth that lies at home
Questioning the truth, particularly the hidden truths at home.
It's on the inside and I can't get it off yeah
The truth is internal, and the speaker struggles to remove it.
Wash my love
Repetition of the desire to cleanse love.
Wash my love
Continuation of the plea for the purification of love.
Wash my love, yeah
Reiteration of the desire for love to be washed.
What's clean is pure but hey, I'm white on the outside
Reflecting on purity, acknowledging external appearances.
Though I stray
Admitting a deviation from purity or morality.
What she don't know today might kill us both tomorrow
A secret that, if unknown today, may lead to consequences tomorrow.
Bring it back someday
Hope for the return of something valuable in the future.
Bring it back, bring it back back to
Repetition of the desire to bring something back.
To the clean form to the pure form
Yearning for a return to a state of purity and cleanliness.
Wash my love
Repetition of the plea for love to be washed.
Wash my love
Continuation of the desire for the purification of love.
Wash my love
Reiteration of the plea for love to be washed.
Wash my love
Repetition of the plea for love to be washed.
Wash my, wash my, wash my love, yeah
Continuation of the desire for the purification of love.
