Scar by Miss Higgins

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 tryin' 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 have gone.

And doesn't that feel peculiar,

when everyone wants a little more.

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.

The she pulled at my stitches,

one by one.

Looked at my inside clicking her tongue,

and said,

'This will all, have to come undone'.

A triangle trying to squeeze through a circle,

she tried to blunt 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 have gone?

And doesn't it feel peculiar,

when everyone wants a little more,

so that I do remember,

to never go that far,

could you leave me with a scar?

I think I realised just in time,

although my old self,

was hard to find.

You can bathe me in your finest wine,

but I'll never give you mine.

Cause I'm a little bit tired,

of fearing that I'll be the bad fruit,

no body buys.

Tell me did you think we'd all dream the same.

Doesn't that sound familiar?

Doesn't that hit too close to home?

Doesn't that make you shiver?

The way things could have gone.

And doesn't it feel peculiar,

when everyone wants a little more,

so that I do remember,

to never go that far,

 could you leave me with a scar?

ohhhhhhhhh.

Could you leave me with a scar?

Could you leave me with a scar?
