You're the flame that I use when it gets dark Without your warm touch I'll fall apart Like my stained dirty clothes You keep piling up Worn out, tired, putting me out of luck Do I wanna be with you? Or be with the thought of you? Used you up too much Just like my dirty laundry When I'm feeling alone Just want you on my body Skeletons in my closet where I keep you Right next to the pile of my dirty laundry My dirty laundry My dirty laundry Keep you hung up Just like my dirty laundry Threw me in the washing machine Limbs feeling like they're pulling at the seams Baby don't you see It's what you do to me It's like we're slaves to our destiny Used you up too much Just like my dirty laundry When I'm feeling alone Just want you on my body Skeletons in my closet where I keep you Right next to the pile of my dirty laundry My dirty laundry My dirty laundry Keep you hung up Just like my dirty laundry Always feel high when I'm with you I feel low in the day The days I'm not with you It always feels a shame When I resurrect you It'll always be the same I'll stop tryna wash you Because it's clear to see You'll always be My dirty laundry
