Lyrics

[Verse 1]

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

[PreChorus]

A triangle tryna squeeze through a circle

He tried to cut me so I'd fit

[Chorus]

And doesn't that sound familiar?

Doesn't that hit too close to home?

Doesn't that make you shiver, the way things coulda 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?

[Verse 2]

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 stitches one by one

Looked at my insides clicking her tongue

And said, "This will all have to come undone"

[PreChorus]

A triangle tryna squeeze through a circle

She tried to blunt me so I'd fit

[Chorus]

And doesn't that sound familiar?

Doesn't that hit too close to home?

Doesn't that make you shiver, the way things coulda 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?

[Bridge]

I think I realised 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

'Cause I'm a little bit tired of fearing that I'll be

The bad fruit nobody buys

Tell me, did you think we'd all dream the same?

[Chorus]

And doesn't that sound familiar?

Doesn't that hit too close to home?

Doesn't that make you shiver, the way things coulda 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?

[Outro]

Could you leave me with a scar?

Could you leave me with a scar?
