Lyrics:
Lyrics~
Sharpenerâs calling me again
Trying to turn it into something I can draw into my skin
Make it a picture that I love
Instead of 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 âcause an escape to me was just a sharpener to you
Big old pill to inch around
There's no copping out this time
Try my best to get it down
Sometimes seems like I'm still young
Looking at the boy across the sink
Thinking what the hell have you just done
Why am I ashamed to look the way I do
All âcause an escape to me was just a sharpener to you
Why am I afraid of things I let inside my room
Just wanted some company, broke the sharpener in two
You say why am I like this
You mean why am I stupid
âCause you know youâre not trying to fix it
You mean why am I like this
You say why am I selfish
âCause you know honey you canât help it

Really appreciate that there's no explicit imagery for such a heavy song. It really makes the message much more meaningful, coming from someone who used to self harm and can trigger easy. This song feels cathartic but not harmful

Most songs about self harm trigger me, but this makes me feel warm and comforted, like im not insane for doing this. Thank you

Idk if this is really obvious or not but i love the part where he reaches his hand out to the train, heâs hesitant at first because the feeling isnât what he expected but then he touches it and the rainbows explode out, and when he takes his hand away they fade, but there is still some that stay with him forever. I think the train represents sh and the rainbows represent the feelings of relief/grounding that come with it, and then the feeling goes but you will always keep the scar, the reminder of that feeling which is the small amount of rainbow he is holding. Again idk if that was really obvious but I just love that part so much

This song took me back to the darkest days of my life. I'm so glad that I kept pushing through because those days are long gone. Amazing song Robbie. <3

Every cavetown song makes me cry but this one especially. Most of all the last part where he says "You ask yourself why am I like this? Why am I selfish? But honey you know you can't help it" because I get where he's coming from and I feel like that so much. I've been trying to stop sh but it's really hard and it's a journey I guess. I wish I could thank Robbie for his songs. They make me feel less alone.

âAn escape to me is just a sharpener to youâ to anyone who relates to this, please stay strong. It gets better. I promise. Go eat that food you love, go watch a movie, but please try to avoid taking it out on yourself. I know firsthand being told to stop doesnât help, but whatever youâre going through, it gets better. You are so freaking amazing and it is possible to stop. There are so many people who love you. There are so many people who you have t met yet who will live you. It gets better.

Just got out of the mental hospital for a suicide attempt. this hits so close to home, if I had succeeded I would have never heard it. Even if its something small maybe it is worth it to stay alive, at least for a bit

Almost crying because of the line âlooking at the boy across the sink, thinking what the hell have you just done.â

âEveryoneâs got a thing they donât like, a thing that makes them stand in front of the sink with tears in their eyesâ - Dear
âLooking at the boy across the sink, thinking what the hell have you just done?â - Sharpener
BRB Iâm just gonna think over these two sentences for the next few weeks, making link after link between the two songs, personal experiences, and the music video.

Songs these days are all about love and breakups, this is why I love Cavetown. He talks about real life problems that everyone else is to scared to talk about. Not only are his lyrics a story by themselves but along with the videos? They may as well be a masterpiece. So many of his songs have helped me, and a lot more through dark times and that is why he is my favorite artist.

Reading the lyrics, Robbie I'm so sorry you've felt this way but just so you know (if you ever read this) we are all SO DAMN PROUD of you for coming this far.

Lyrics for anyone who needs them :-)
[Verse 1]
Sharpener's calling me again
Trying to turn it into some
Thing I can draw into my skin
Make it a picture that I love
Instead of something that I wish
I could get in the bath and scrub right off
[Chorus]
Why am I ashamed to look the way I do?
All 'cause an escape to me was just a sharpener to you
[Verse 2]
Big old pill to inch around
There's no copping out this time
Try my best to get it down (Get, get, get, get it down)
Sometimes seems like I'm still young
Looking at the boy across the sink
Thinking "What the hell have you just done?" ("What the hell have you just done?")
[Chorus]
Why am I ashamed to look thĐľ way I do?
All 'cause an escape to mĐľ was just a sharpener to you
Why am I afraid of things I let inside my room?
Just wanted some company, broke the sharpener in two
[Outro]
You say, why am I like this?
You mean, why am I stupid?
'Cause you know you're not trying to fix it
You mean, why am I like this?
You say, why am I selfish?
'Cause you know, honey, you can't help it
[End of Song]
