Splinters Songtext
von Therefore I Am

So they say, "Hey kid, why can′t you keep your head up?
Please stop bleeding and start acting like yourself
Well who the hell is that anyway?"
So with no signs of relief
I seem to see more sense in holding hands with the dead
I lay alone, I lay below
I'll float out the milestone
′Cause my friend told me
She said, "Hold thee like a bane in the palm of your hand"
Can't you see, man, it's not all that easy
′Cause I, I don′t know
I don't know what love means
No, I don′t know what love means
At least let me see the golden road that you promised
Just give me back my jaded heart that you stole
When you left me high and dry
'Cause what good is life without a wick to burn it all away?
What good is hope when all you left me
Is a fabricated fair weather phrase?


′Cause my friend told me
She said, "Hold thee like a bane in the palm of your hand"
Can't you see, man, it′s not all that easy
'Cause I, I don't know
Maybe I′m just a kid
Maybe I′m sunken in into a quarter life crisis
I don't know
Maybe it is this weight
Darkness that makes me shake
Keeps us all alive
I don′t know
'Cause my friend told me
She said, "Hold thee like a bane in the palm of your hand"
Can′t you see, man, it's not all that easy
′Cause my friend told me
She said, "Hold thee like a bane in the palm of your hand"
Can't you see, man, it's not all that easy
′Cause I, I don′t know
I don't know
