Thought Splinters

I’ve been here before

I’ve been, I’ve been

here before (before)

I’ve been here before

I’ve been, I’ve been

here before (before)

Memories grip me

Like a power house they rip me

Shattered into splinters

Dissolving like snow in the winter

I’m tender to the touch

It just is so much

So Don’t you judge me

Or think you’re above me

You could be here too

So you better just love me

I’ve been here before

I’ve been, I’ve been

here before (before)

I’ve been here before

I’ve been, I’ve been

here before (before)

Thought splinters

Piercing my brain

I react in vain (in vain)

To avoid all the pain

But It’s got me again (again again again)

I’m Tough as nails

(Or so they say)

But I remember the day

That I gave up all the way

At night I stay up

Thinking so much

It’s never so rough

Unless there’s something you forgot

So let it go (I know)

Don’t deepen the plot

Or throw the first blow

(Cause the counter blow hurts a lot)

Thought splinters

Piercing my brain

I react in vain (in vain)

To avoid all the pain

But It’s got me again (again again again)

I’m Tough as nails

(Or so they say)

But I remember the day

That I gave up all the way

Ha! Here I am again

Back for round two

It sticks to me like glue

But what else is new?

What went wrong?

I’ve taken much too long

To change my mind

Oh man are you blind? (Blind blind blind)

I’ve been here before

I’ve been, I’ve been

here before before

I’ve been here before

I’ve been, I’ve been

here before before]

Thought splinters

Piercing my brain

I react in vain (in vain)

To avoid all the pain

But It’s got me again (again again again)

I’m Tough as nails

(Or so they say)

But I remember the day

That I gave up all the way

Oh yeah I meant that

Or no I didn’t

Let me finish

Don’t diminish

My mind is sent back

To when I was

young

Always under the gun

Do this

Don’t to that

No time to chat

Or hug

Just react

So back

Me into a corner

No borders

Just blue n black

It’s true

I wish I had pushed back

I’ve been here before

I’ve been, I’ve been

here before before

I’ve been here before

I’ve been, I’ve been

here before before]

Thought splinters

Piercing my brain

I react in vain (in vain)

To avoid all the pain

But It’s got me again (again again again)

I’m Tough as nails

(Or so they say)

But I remember the day

That I gave up all the way

I’ve been here before

So just close the door

Don’t bother me no more

Thought splinters of yore
