I sat in the ocean all night
the shower didn’t work
So I thought the sea might
clean my skin, let my skin be clean
for the first time since I were three

Oh, I want to be clear and clean,
Oh, I would like to be a little sane,
Oh, I wish I were three again,
I wish I had a shred of innocence,
I wish I had a little of the old me.

I stared at the stars all night
The praying didn’t work
So I thought a shooting star might
Bring my wish true, let my wish be free
for the first time since I were three.

Oh, I want to be free and open,
Oh, I would like to be a little sane,
Oh, I wish I were three again,
I wish I had a shred of innocence,
I wish I had a little less of a sin.

Well, that’s what soaps for,
I’ve lost layers of skin since then,
I am not at all the same,
The cells that were alive then are dead now,
I’ve lost layers of skin since then,
I am not at all the same.
