Sharpener

Sharpener's callin' me again

Tryin' to turn it into some

Thing I can draw into my skin

Make it a picture that I'll love

Insert something that I wish

I could get in the bath and scrub right off

Why am I ashamed to look the way I do?

All 'cause an escape to me was just a sharpener to you

Big old pill, two-inch around

There's no copping out this time

Tried my best to get it down (get, get, get, get it down)

Sometimes seems like I'm still young

Lookin' at the boy across the sink

Thinking "What the hell have you just done?"

("What the hell have you just done?")

Why am I ashamed to look the way I do?

All 'cause an escape to me was just a sharpener to you

Why am I afraid of things I let inside my room?

Just wanted some company, broke the sharpener in two

You say, why am I like this?

You mean, why am I stupid?

Guess you know you're not tryin' to fix this

You mean, why am I like this?

You say, why am I selfish?

Guess you know, honey, you can't help it
