piper turri - scraping knees lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
gave into a want i had
now i’m feeling so ashamed
if i could bathe in my own words
i’d be dirty with mistakes

towel off to only find
skin has given way to bones
i’ve already told my secrets
i don’t know why i feel exposed

[verse 2]
did i become just like my house
every corner dust and dirt?
i want the calm to carry weight;
growing pains don’t have to hurt

these white walls have molded me
now i think that i can drive
tall enough now for the seat;
old enough to know left from right

[bridge]
maybe i saw myself in a shop window
or maybe in a mirror
where i realized that i’m nothing
but how i choosе to appear
is it shallow to want more
from the pеople around me
am i wading in deeper
or am i scr+ping my knees
[chorus]
it was always
like water
that smothered me
i’m a mother’s daughter
and the doorframe
that held our growth
just burned to ash
i taste the smoke

[outro]
and i can’t believe i melt alive
while i grieve
pooled upon the ground
in front of their feet
gave a little more
than what they asked for;
leaking through
the countless cracks in our floor
i know that i’m someone they
forget to miss
don’t know why i ever even
tried to fit
