This is, in essence, a song of hope, a song of revival, a song of rebirth. Through all the pain is born a new man. But is this a rebirth for dad, or is it the son who is emerging out from under the yoke of the guilt at what the father has done?

VERSE 1
	So suddenly,
		I've taken leave of me.
	All this mud on my soul,
		I don't need it at all.
CHORUS 1
	Wash my spirit clean.
		Forget now what has been.
	Start a new beginning.
		Make that sorrow end.
VERSE 2
	Climbed out those
		stained 'n soiled clothes.
	Standing naked, open...
		ready to receive.
CHORUS 2
	Wash my spirit clean.
		Forget now what has been.
	Start a new beginning.
		Make that sorrow end.
INSTRUMENTAL BRIDGE
VERSE 3
	This mud on my soul seems to smother me.
		I do not want to live this way.
	This shit on my soul makes me hate myself.
		Don't wanna live this way.
CHORUS 3
	Wash my spirit clean.
		Forget now what has been.
	Start a new beginning.
		Make that sorrow end.
	Wash my spirit clean.
		Forget now what has been.
	Start a new beginning.
		Make that sorrow end.
	Wash my spirit clean.
		Forget now what has been.
	Start a new beginning.
		Make that sorrow end.
INSTRUMENTAL
VERSE 4
	I shed my skin.
		The age has fallen by.
	All the layers of my life,
		peeled away.
BRIDGE
VERSE 5
	I'm a new man,
		climbed out from the river.
	No more crying.
		Tears, like rain, have cleansed me.
