Austin Lucas - Splinters lyrics

rate me

She said that too many people

Know nothing about the world

They ain’t been in love

And they ain’t seen enough

They all wanna sing along

It’s easy to do

When there ain't a damn bit of heart in a song

That ain’t got no soul

Honey that ain’t rock and roll

So we lit out like two bats out of hell

We were young and we were full of life

Singing along to I’d do anything for love

Found paradise by the dashboard light

She said Jesus was a carpenter

And you’re semi-known singer of songs

You feed the spirits

But how's the soul

Honey I’m just a wrecker of homes

You say that’s a splinter

And sap from evergreen

A bruise on your elbow

A little skin off your knee

But if it’s only blood and a busted lip

Just a crack in your perfect teeth

Tell me why does it hurt so bad?

Tell me why when I slam the door and leave

So I said what’s with all this talk of the savior?

I know he’s yours but he sure ain’t mine

She said you ain’t gotta be a believer to hold

A place in his grand design

Well she looked so cute

A dip in her faith

So I kissed her where she stood

I was filled up with bad intentions

Oh but Lord those intentions felt good

You say that’s a splinter

And sap from evergreen

A bruise on your elbow

A little skin off your knee

But if it’s only blood and a busted lip

Just a crack in your perfect teeth

Tell me why does it hurt so bad?

Tell me why when I slam the door and leave

They say that’s a splinter

And sat from evergreen

A birth on your elbow

A little skin of your knee

But if it’s only burr and a busted lip

Just a crack in your perfect teeth

Tell me why does it hurt so bad?

Tell me why when I slam the door and leave
