Karaoké Scar Missy Higgins

He left a card and a bar of soap with 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

A triangle trying to squeeze through a circle he tried to cut me so I'd fit

And doesn't that sound familiar

Doesn't that hit too close to home

Doesn't that make you shiver the way things could've 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

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

A triangle trying to squeeze through a circle she tried to blunt me so I'd fit

And doesn't that sound familiar

Doesn't that hit too close to home

Doesn't that make you shiver the way things could have 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

I think I realized 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

'Cos 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

And doesn't that sound familiar

Doesn't that hit too close to home

Doesn't that make you shiver the way things could have 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

Could you leave me with a scar

Could you leave me with a scar
