Sharpener - Cavetown

Lyrics by：Robin Skinner

Sharpener's calling me again

Trying to turn it into some

Thing I can draw into my skin

Make it a picture that I love

Instead of 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 to inch around

There's no copping out this time

Try my best to get it down

Get get get get it down

Sometimes seems like I'm still young

Looking at the boy across the sink

Thinking what the hell have you just done

What the hell have you

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

'Cause you know you're not trying to fix it

You mean why am I like this

You say why am I selfish

'Cause you know honey you can't help it
