[Verse 1]
Emaj7 B
Sharpener's callin' me again
G#m Emaj7
Tryin' to turn it into some-
B G#m
thing I can draw into my skin
Emaj7 B
Make it a picture that I love
G#m Emaj7
Instead of something that I wish
B G#m
I could get in the bath and scrub right off
[Chorus]
Emaj7 C#m A E
Why am I ashamed to look the way I do?
B C#m A E
All ‘cause an escape to me was just a sharpener to you
[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
Emaj7 B
Big old pill to inch around
G#m Emaj7
There's no copping out this time
B G#m
Try my best to get it down (Get, get, get, get it down)
Emaj7 B
Sometimes seems like I'm still young
G#m Emaj7
Lookin' at the boy across the sink
B G#m
Thinking "What the hell have you just done?" ("What the hell have you just done?")
[Chorus]
Emaj7 C#m A E
Why am I ashamed to look the way I do?
B C#m A E
All ‘cause an escape to me was just a sharpener to you
B C#m A E
Why am I afraid of things I let inside my room?
B C#m A E
Just wanted some company, broke the sharpener in two

[Outro]
B C#m
You say, why am I like this?
Amaj7 E
You mean, why am I stupid?
B C#m Amaj7 E
‘Cause you know you’re not trying to fix it
B C#m
You mean, why am I like this?
Amaj7 E
You say, why am I selfish?
B C#m Amaj7 E
‘Cause you know honey you can’t help it
