&quot;If you don&#039;t like something change it. If you can&#039;t change it, change your attitude.&quot;<br /> Maya Angelou


[1st Verse:]

You’re tortured; you get home and you’re sittin’ in the corner – thinkin’

Keep scratchin’, cat fightin’ one day, I’m gonna be shinin’

But you aren’t realizin’

You’re the one gettin’ dull from nothin’

‘cuz you keep hurtin’ the ones you love

[CHORUS:]

Sayin’ scratch, scratch

Don’t look back; got your eyes on the ones you love,

but you can’t keep your thoughts on track

Thinkin’ bout the way that you’re hurtin’

So you scratch, scratch

Brighten me; smile on you

Take a look around everybody else is feelin blue

YOU’RE JUST A PIECE OF SANDPAPER, BUT LIKE DEMI SAID,

THE REST OF US ARE SKYSCRAPERS

Bright and tall ’cause of you, so just keep on scratchin’.

[2nd Verse:]

Suicidal, your an idol

Everything’s got to be centered around you

You need the

attention

You don’t know what else to do

so you

Keep hurtin’ the ones you love

sayin’

[Chorus:]

Sayin’ scratch, scratch

Don’t look back, got your eyes on the ones you love,

but you can’t keep your thoughts on track thinkin’ bout the way that you’re hurtin’

so you scratch, scratch

won’t look back

brighten me smile on you

take a look around everybody else is feelin’ blue

YOU’RE JUST A PIECE OF SANDPAPER, BUT LIKE DEMI SAID,

THE REST OF US ARE SKYSCRAPERS ,

bright and tall cause of you so just keep on scratchin’.

I was once hurt by a friend,or so I thought,and that friend would say that whoever picked on her was just a piece of sand paper. I wrote this song for that person after she continuosly ignored me and got mad at me. This is for my so-called friends.
