Title: Scar

Lyrics Scar

He left a card, a bar of soap
And a scrubbing brush next to a note
That said "use these down to your bones"
And before I knew I had shiny skin
And it felt easy being clean like him
I thought "this one knows better than I do"

A triangle trying to squeeze through a circle
He tried to cut me so I'd fit

And doesn't that sound familiar
Doesn't that hit too close to home
Doesn't that make you shiver
The way things could've gone
And doesn't it feel peculiar
When everyone wants a little more
And so that I do remember
To never go that far
Could you leave me with a scar

So the next one came with a bag of treats
She smelled like sugar and spoke like the sea
And she told me don't trust them, trust me
Then she pulled at my stitches one by one
Looked at my insides clicking her tongue and said
"This will all have to come undone"

A triangle trying to squeeze through a circle
She tried to cut me so I'd fit

And doesn't that sound familiar
Doesn't that hit too close to home
Doesn't that make you shiver
The way things could've gone
And doesn't it feel peculiar
When everyone wants a little more
And so that I do remember
To never go that far
Could you leave me with a scar

I think I realized just in time
Although my old self was hard to find
You bathe me in your finest wine but I'll never give you mine
'Cos I'm a little bit tired of feeling like I'll be the bad fruit nobody buys
Tell me, did you think we'd all dream the same

And doesn't that sound familiar
Doesn't that hit too close to home
Doesn't that make you shiver
The way things could've gone
And doesn't it feel peculiar
When everyone wants a little more
And so that I do remember
To never go that far
Could you leave me with a scar
Could you leave me with a scar
