lyrics

I was shown how to love at an early age
I was given attention and time
And if I needed help I looked for someone else
and never learned to do it by myself

I was taught to fear what I did not know
But to trust a God I could not see
To look high to heaven and fear the fires of hell
but never to trust myself

Chorus:
Nobody gets out clean
No such thing as a great escape
There's struggle in everything
There's no finding another way
Walk a mile on the other side and then you'll finally see
That nobody gets out clean

There's a part of me that still feels thirteen
And watching my brother fall away and I would take his place
As the golden boy, still so young
but the heart of the good son still beats inside of me
and he's scared to make mistakes

Nobody gets out clean
No such thing as a getaway
There's struggle in everything
There's no finding another way
Walk a mile on the other side and then you'll finally see
That nobody gets out clean

Wherever we hide it
we are united
by the feeling that we're alone
but we're not alone, we're not alone

There’s no such thing as a getaway
There's no finding another way
It's easier to place the blame
on someone else, someone else
But know it's not enough
we've gotta let ourselves love and let go
