missy higgins - 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 st-tches 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 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?
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 can bathe me in your finest wine but i’ll never give you mine
‘cos i’m a little bit tired of fearing that i’ll be the bad fruit n-body 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 have 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?
