Lyrics
(Verse 1)
I should forgive ya
And I do
Cause that’s what people say
That I should always do
And I could forget the
Things you did
But that would be
An ignorant thing for me to do
(Chorus 1)
So I oh I
Got so many tattoos
From the mean things you would do
And so much as I would try
A sponge and soap
Won’t scrub away the dye
Woah
And so I cry
Woah
(Verse 2)
I’ve been afraid to
Say a thing
About the stories I’m
Not allowed to talk about
Not ready to explain to anyone
What this song’s about
Or the story behind this one
(Chorus 2)
So I, I hide
All of my tattoos
Of the mean things you would do
And so much as I would try
A sponge and soap won’t
(Bridge)
Scrub away the dye
Oh why
(Chorus 3)
I can’t get rid of my tattoos
Of the mean things you would do
And so much as I would try
A sponge and soap
Won’t scrub away the dye
