[Verse 1]
Amaj7 E
Sharpener's callin' me again
C#m Amaj7
Tryin' to turn it into some-
E C#m
thing I can draw into my skin
Amaj7 E
Make it a picture that I love
C#m Amaj7
Instead of something that I wish
E C#m
I could get in the bath and scrub right off
[Chorus]
Amaj7 F#m D A
Why am I ashamed to look the way I do?
E F#m D A
All ‘cause an escape to me was just a sharpener to you
[Interlude]
E F#m D A
E F#m D A
[Verse 2]
Amaj7 E
Big old pill to inch around
C#m Amaj7
There's no copping out this time
E C#m
Try my best to get it down (Get, get, get, get it down)
Amaj7 E
Sometimes seems like I'm still young
C#m Amaj7
Lookin' at the boy across the sink
E C#m
Thinking "What the hell have you just done?" ("What the hell have you just done?")
[Chorus]
Amaj7 F#m D A
Why am I ashamed to look the way I do?
E F#m D A
All ‘cause an escape to me was just a sharpener to you
E F#m D A
Why am I afraid of things I let inside my room?
E F#m D A
Just wanted some company, broke the sharpener in two

[Outro]
E F#m
You say, why am I like this?
Dmaj7 A
You mean, why am I stupid?
E F#m Dmaj7 A
‘Cause you know you’re not trying to fix it
E F#m
You mean, why am I like this?
Dmaj7 A
You say, why am I selfish?
E F#m Dmaj7 A
‘Cause you know honey you can’t help it
