Song information
Back when I was still working there was a time when I was tasked with something that I thought was wrong. It was a minor thing, I guess, but it made me feel bad about having to do it. There was too much to lose to not do it. So I did and this song sprang up from the experience and the feelings at that time. After 13 years it still bothers me when I listen to it.

Lyrics
I’ve been asked 
To do something Wrong
I ask how many times
And for how long

I feel so dirty
I feel so cheap
Wrong is wrong
And cheap is cheap

Why don’t I refuse
Why don’t I fight
I struggle with these questions
In the darkness of the night 

When the powers that be
Have the powers they want
Doing what’s righteous
Makes you the victim of the hunt

Is it all an illusion
Will we all repent
Is reality still real
When everything is bent

When the demons in the mind
Become demons in the flesh 
Can the soul crawl over
Razor wire mesh

I do my wrong
And I do it with a smile
I do my wrong so well
I go the extra mile

Now I’m so fools hero
With emptiness inside
It’s hard to do wrong
And keep your pride

So I take a shower
And I close my eyes
But I can’t wash off
The dirt inside

I can’t wash off the dirt inside

Strong message. Strong expression. And I can relate to the story. Most of us have been there.
