Scratch Songtext
von Filiah

I made it all about you
Now there′s nothing left of me
I keep drowning in your feelings
'til I don′t know what I need
Turned myself into a sculpture
Carved our name in it for free
I was taught to act naive
And it's still how I'm perceived
I know just how to please you
How to bend and how to speak
As long as nothing really matters
And I dress it up in pastel

There′s a
Little scratch on the surface
Just a
Little scratch on the surface


I′ve been addressing all this anger
Waiting for some big relief
I see my Mother in the mirror
With all the ancient grief
A cool and silly girl
Just not enough to play the lead
You never thought about it once
I know exactly how I'm seen
I′m counting down the seconds
'til my friends all turn on me
I could′ve sworn everyone hates me
Ever since 13

There's a little scratch on the surface
Just a little scratch on the surface

Finally 27
Like that song I used to sing
Lost an eyelash in the sink
Picked it up and made a wish
I don′t know who I'm kidding
Always ask for the same thing
To make sense of all my feelings
As they always seem so big
I'm tired of the people in my past
Acting like they all give a damn
While I am bending over backwards
For a love that′s not redeemed
I should′ve done it all for me

There's a little scratch on the surface
Just a little scratch on the surface


Now and then I think of him
I wish I could′ve seen it then
I wish I would have loved myself
If and then and soon and when
Oh what a waste of breath
Someone always fucks somebody else
There's stuff that never gets addressed
So people leave and they get left

(little scratch on the surface)
If the world does not collapse I see us older in my head
(just a little scratch on the surface)
A family I chose for myself
They love me for who I am
