Splinter Songtext
von Wisdom in Chains

I′m sorry, I'm sorry
For all the times my mama cried
And I apologize
For not being who you needed me to be
I hope you realize

I think about you all the time

I′ve spent half my life
Trying to let it go

Every time I get close
The anger comes creeping back up
Like a splinter down in my soul
And I wonder why
Can I be so petty sometimes
Even though I hold a grudge
You're always on my mind
I'm standing three steps from your door
But I′m afraid to step inside

But you′re always on my mind
I think about you all the time


The anger comes creeping back up
Like a splinter down in my soul
And I wonder why
Can I be so petty sometimes
Even though I hold a grudge
You're always on my mind
I′m standing three steps from your door
But I'm afraid to step inside

But you′re always on my mind

I'm sorry
I′m sorry I'm not who you needed me to be

My will is easy to decide
For there is nothing to divide

My kin don't need to fuss and moan
Moss does not cling to rolling stone
My body, oh, if I could choose
I would want to ashes it reduce
And let the merry breezes blow
My dust where some flowers grow
Perhaps some fading flower then
Would come to life and bloom again
This is my last and final will
Good luck to all of you
