Scar - Live Version - Missy Higgins

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

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

And could you leave me with a scar?

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?
