Dirty Laundry

[Verse 1]
I've been practicing in the mirror
So when I inevitably run into you
Words I've said'll ring clearer
And I'm ready to get rid of you too

[Pre-Chorus]
Swear I've tried just staying out of this
But I let you in and now I'm doubting it

[Chorus]
I'm airing you out like dirty laundry
Thinking 'bout you for weeks
You're wearing me down but I'm not talking
Promised that I'd stay clean
Want another chance with you
But it always gets too messy
I'm airing you out like dirty laundry
It's wearing me down

[Verse 2]
I talk about you, but won't use your name
Just stealing a joke from a friend
Do I call you that, wishing it went that way?
Still a little too soon, so I'm playing it safe
But I'll keep tracing the lines that we drew
With the hope that they bend okay

[Chorus]
I'm airing you out like dirty laundry
Thinking bout you for weeks
You're wearing me down but I'm not talking
Promised that I'd stay clean
Want another chance with you
But it always gets too messy
I'm airing you out like dirty laundry
It's wearing me down
Wearing me down

[Post-Chorus]
Ah, Ah
Ah, Ah

[Chorus]
I'm airing you out like dirty laundry
Thinking bout you for weeks
You're wearing me down but I'm not talking
Promised that I'd stay clean
Want another chance with you
But it always gets too messy
I'm airing you out like dirty laundry
It's wearing me down
Wearing me down

[Post-Chorus]
Ah, Ah
Ah, Ah
