"SPLINTER" lyrics

You got my whole life sitting in your hands
I'd like to go out, but you don't dance
I wanna slow down if I had the chance
You rather listen to your friends than understand

I saw a house for the winter
The twins say they miss ya
Reminding me family makes a home
I know your love's like a splinter
Your touch leaves a blister
I dreamt I don't miss it anymore

If you lay bare at my door
You'll see I'm not the same as before
I'm not the same, baby, don't owe a thing to me
I wonder what we ever did it for

You got my whole life sitting in your hands
I'd like to go out, but you don't dance
I wanna slow down if I had the chance
You rather listen to your friends than understand

I probably told you that I wanna have us back
Turn up the radio as we do a little dance
And since you left me I've been broken back up
Kinda kills me I just don't miss what we had

You had my, uh, had my heart in your hands
Every time that we laugh, every time that you crash on the
Same leather couch that we lay
Sat and listened to rain
I swore I heard it say that I
Loved the way you used to make me dance (dance)
Now we're two-stepping to a future we can't have (have)

You got my whole life sitting in your hands
I'd like to go out, but you don't dance
I wanna slow down if I have the chance
You rather listen to your friends than understand

You got my whole life sitting in your hands
I'd like to go out, but you don't dance
I wanna slow down if I have the chance
You rather listen to your friends than understand

Say what you want and what you mean to me (maybe you listen to me)
I just wanna hold, I don't know (maybe you listen to me)
I don't know what to do (maybe you listen to me)
Say what you want and what you mean to me (maybe you listen to me, maybe you listen to me)
I just wanna hold, I don't know (listen to your friends, maybe you listen to me)
I don't know what to do (maybe you listen to me)
