Lyrics

Cavetown — Sharpener

Sharpener's callin' me again

Tryin' to turn it into some

Thing I can draw into my skin

Make it a picture that I'll love

Insert something that I wish

I could get in the bath and scrub right off

Why am I ashamed to look the way I do?

All 'cause an escape to me was just a sharpener to you
