What Causes Skin Colored Bump On Top Of Head?

,I have a skin colored bump on the top of my head under my hair close to the hairline. It is soft and it doesn't really hurt putting pressure on it. It been the re for as long as I can remember but I know it wasn't there when I was a baby. I know if I mess with it and pick at it it will bleed but it just goes back and always stays a skin colored squishy bump. Any ideas what it is ?.
