Sandpaper Songtext
von Nadeah

Though nobody quite broke me
They left me here to fix me
Though nobody quite broke me
Still I′m broken

Though nobody quite owns me
I can't say that I am quite free today

Though nobody abused me
I′m feeling so abused

I do it to myself you see
To let the others know
And though nobody's used me
I'm feeling all used up

I use and bruise myself you know
Like sandpaper on the inside
I scrubbed up pretty rough
And I think I′ve had enough
Like sandpaper on the inside
I scrubbed up pretty rough
And I think that we′ve both had enough


I'm tired of treading quicksand
I′m tired from dreading his hand
I'm sick from bleeding under all the
Weight of that great lover
And all his expectations
Perplexing in their quest for a state of perfection

And so I′m giving up on
Attaining all the glory
That man could ever attain in his
Mission to be glorious
And of finding the elusive one
That they're all calling better
′Cause better she has been here all along

Like sandpaper on the inside
I scrubbed up pretty rough
And I think I've had enough
Like sandpaper on the inside
I scrubbed up pretty rough
And I think that we've both had enough


It′s been a long long time
Since I commit myself
To write a song
So full of self-pity, self-harm
It′s been a long long time
Since I commit myself
To write a song
So full of self-pity, self-harm
And self-obsession
I guess I needed it

Like sandpaper on the inside
I scrubbed up pretty rough
And I think that we've all had enough
