Clean Slate

I cried on a lot of shoulders

Stayed quiet when I could have been bolder

I been running scared most of the time

I hid from the spotlight

Chose clouds over sunlight

It turns out the rain ain't really been a friend of mine

I'm calling on the winds of change

Cause it's time to rearrange things

And wipe the slate clean

Yeah wipe the slate clean

I froze when I felt restless

Held my breath till I felt breathless

I buried myself in a lifetime of sand

I've thrown away a precious day

Seen wrong and looked the other way

Not sure when things got so out of hand

I'm calling on the winds of change

Cause it's time to rearrange things

And wipe the slate clean

Yeah wipe the slate clean

I've poured a fortune down the wishing well

Rode my luck straight through the gates of hell

Watched the tide as he tried and tried to catch the moon

I been wrong more than I been right

I even waited for Godot all night

I kept hoping I kept hoping he might get here soon

I'm calling on the winds of change

Cause it's time to rearrange things

And wipe the slate clean

Yeah wipe the slate clean
