Always Dirty, Never Clean Lyrics by Anarbor

Free Your Mind

2009

[Verse 1]
They tied me up, they stripped me down
Against the world I'll stand my ground
I'll sell my songs, but not my soul
They'll chew you up, they'll spit you out
Yeah, follow me, we'll ride it out
I'll sell my songs, but not my soul
[Pre-Chorus]
I'll take dignity over industry
My wardrobe has never meant shit to me
I'll sell my songs
But never my soul
And what the fuck happened to rock and roll?
[Chorus]
I've got bruises on my hands and knees
And a list of failures in between
Always dirty, I am never clean
Music is what you hear
And not what you see
[Verse 2]
There's something wrong, this isn't right
I make the rules or I'm gone tonight
I signed the line but didn't lose control
They'll tell you lies right to your eyes
Before you know, they'll suck you dry
I signed the line but didn't lose control
[Pre-Chorus]
We've got families and mouths to feed
I'll take pride over profit
And guts over greed
I signed the line
Didn't lose control
And what the fuck happened to rock and roll?
[Chorus]
I've got bruises on my hands and knees
And a list of failures in between
Always dirty, I am never clean
Music is what you hear
And not what you see
[Bridge]
And if there's one thing left to tell
It's that I am being real
And you should know, yeah you should know
Just how I feel
Oh, just how I feel
You should know, you should know just how I feel
[Chorus]
I've got bruises on my hands and knees
And a list of failures in between
Always dirty, I am never clean
Music is what you hear
And not what you
I've got bruises on my hands and knees
And a list of failures in between
Always dirty, I am never clean
Music is what you hear
And not what you
Music is what you hear
And not what you see
