[Verse 1]
C#maj7 G#
Sharpener's callin' me again
Fm C#maj7
Tryin' to turn it into some-
G# Fm
thing I can draw into my skin
C#maj7 G#
Make it a picture that I love
Fm C#maj7
Instead of something that I wish
G# Fm
I could get in the bath and scrub right off
[Chorus]
C#maj7 A#m F# C#
Why am I ashamed to look the way I do?
G# A#m F# C#
All ‘cause an escape to me was just a sharpener to you

[Verse 2]
C#maj7 G#
Big old pill to inch around
Fm C#maj7
There's no copping out this time
G# Fm
Try my best to get it down (Get, get, get, get it down)
C#maj7 G#
Sometimes seems like I'm still young
Fm C#maj7
Lookin' at the boy across the sink
G# Fm
Thinking "What the hell have you just done?" ("What the hell have you just done?")
[Chorus]
C#maj7 A#m F# C#
Why am I ashamed to look the way I do?
G# A#m F# C#
All ‘cause an escape to me was just a sharpener to you
G# A#m F# C#
Why am I afraid of things I let inside my room?
G# A#m F# C#
Just wanted some company, broke the sharpener in two

G# A#m
You say, why am I like this?
F#maj7 C#

G# A#m F#maj7 C#
‘Cause you know you’re not trying to fix it
G# A#m
You mean, why am I like this?
F#maj7 C#
You say, why am I selfish?
G# A#m F#maj7 C#
‘Cause you know honey you can’t help it
