I found you in my thoughts again Like a splinter under my skin And I know that it was just one night You're like a spark in the fading light You cut me deep, left no scars I still feel them You're in my blood and your heartbeat draws me nearer The dice were loaded from the start We're trying to keep these splinters from our hearts And when the pain don't leave a scar We're trying to keep these splinters from our hearts Do you keep it all locked up within? Am I the splinter under your skin? Do you see me when you close your eyes? Am I the secret you try to hide? Is there something there that you won't see, 'cause I still feel you Am I on your mind? Your heartbeat draws me nearer The dice were loaded from the start We're trying to keep these splinters from our hearts And when the pain don't leave a scar We're trying to keep these splinters from our hearts Deep down every splinter, every splinter scars Deep down every splinter, every splinter scars The dice were loaded from the start We're trying to keep these splinters from our hearts And when the pain don't leave a scar We're trying to keep these splinters from our hearts
