Splinter Songtext
von Switchfoot

It′s only illusions
It's only an ebb and flow
It′s only a re-run
It's only a so and so
It's only a glimpse now
It′s only a glancing blow

It′s only a mind game
It's only rock and roll
It′s only allegiance
It's only heart and soul
Just tell me a lie now
Just tell me you can′t let go

It's only illusions
It′s only illusions


My mind is at war
I lie awake in bed
Like a splinter in my hand
Like a splinter in my head
The promises we've sworn
And every word you've said
Like a splinter in my hand
Like a splinter in my head

Don′t worry, Pedro
Don′t tell me, I think I know
'Cause I′m on the payroll
The cursed kaleidoscope
Am I the pollution?
Am I the foregone conclusion?

It's only illusions
It′s only illusions

My mind is at war
I lie awake in bed
Like a splinter in my hand
Like a splinter in my head
The promises we've sworn
And every word you′ve said
Like a splinter in my hand
Like a splinter in my head


It's only illusions
It's only illusions
It′s only illusions
It′s only de-evolution

Who can take these broken splinters from my head?

My mind is at war
I lie awake in bed
Like a splinter in my hand
Like a splinter in my head
The promises we've sworn
And every word you′ve said
Like a splinter in my hand
Like a splinter in my head

It's only illusion
It′s only illusion
In all this confusion
I start to forget what I'm doing
It′s only a splinter in my hand
It's only a splinter in my head
It's only illusion
