been told i got a dirty mind,
laden with awful sin
sex & drugs, hell knows what else
but it’s filled to the brim.
in attempt to clean it up,
i refrain & i abstain
but i’m on the cusp of blowing up
there’s filth that fills my brain.
so i wanna be brainwashed,
give up the fight.
wanna drink so much that i forget i’m still alive.
forget you.
forget my name too.
if it means that i’ll feel alright
i just wanna be brainwashed tonight
i wonder how i conjure up my dreams so dark & grim
it’s just those pesky demons
they consume me from within.
i’ve gone to church, i’ve studied hard
but it seems there’s no escape
my wants simply outweigh my needs
there’s filth that fills my brain.
so i wanna be brainwashed,
give up the fight.
wanna drink so much that i forget i’m still alive.
forget you.
forget my name too.
if it means that i’ll feel alright
i just wanna be brainwashed tonight
really scrub it good
clean it like i know you can cause mama taught you good
there’s no more fight
there’s no more flight
just throw all of that away
& let’s get
brainwashed
so let’s get brainwashed tonight
give up the fight
let’s all drink so much that we forget we’re still alive.
forget you.
forget my name too.
if it means that we’ll feel alright
we should all just get brainwashed tonight
