It all come's out in the wash...

Would of, should of wish I could of.
Wanting hindsight now.
Mis-match, dispatch. Relationship re-hash.
Should have learned by now.

For all the chime and consideration, for all the time and tears...
It all comes out in the wash, my friend, and what don't disappears.

Let it go, don't let it muddy the laundry.
Let it go don't let it bleed.
Let it go, for all the wonder.
Let it go and let it free.

Trapping, trying so much striving. Wanting to lead the plow.
People, problems you can solve em', Watson has nothin' on you now.

For all the rhyme and reiteration, for all the chimes and cheers...
It all comes out in the wash, my friend, and what won't colors years.

Let it go, don't let it bleach the laundry.
Let it go, don't let it fade.
Let it go, to all the thunder.
let it go and let it rage.

Grief and forgiving for that old living. Coming back to life again.
Past regrets only fix is not repeating again.

For all the tears and transportation, for all the peers and pain...
It all comes out in the wash, my friend, and what don't leaves and stain.

Let it go, don't let it sour the laundry.
Let it go, and let it be.
Let it go, to all the wonder.
Let it go and you'll be free.
