Splinters

I saw you in the rear-view mirror Streetlights sketching you in gold Just a nod, then you were gone Didn't know you'd come undone Moments trapped in window glass Your laugh still dancing in the air If I'd known that it would end I would've stayed, I would've cared One more chance is all I need To hold you close, never letting you leave Now I'm living in the past Holding splinters made of glass One more chance is all I need To hold you close, not letting you leave Now I'm living in the past Holding splinters made of glass The promises I nеver spoke Will always echo through my chеst I didn't see you fade like smoke With only silence for a guest Little traces still remain Like your cup still by the sink Another crack across the pane And for one moment I cannot think One more chance is all I need To hold you close, never letting you leave Now I'm living in the past Holding splinters made of glass One more chance is all I need To hold you close, not letting you leave Now I'm living in the past Holding splinters made of- (Splinters made of glass) Holding splinters made of glass One more chance is all I need (Splinters made of glass) One more chance is all I need Splinters made of glass Splinters made of glass

I'm sick, sick of holding on I'm sick of who I have become There was a time I drifted Numb to every word you'd say Trapped beneath the weight of thoughts I could not chase away Hours stretched to lifetimes Stuck inside my head Crossed beneath the doubt That I've never shed These echoes of a battle Scars I've never shown I can't see the end Lost in the unknown Fighting endless combat I'm losing to myself How long can I hold on In this forsaken hell I'm sick, sick of holding on I'm sick of who I have become Time has passed, but demons stayed They never lost their grip The past still follows close behind With claws that slowly rip Though I healed on top The cuts still burn within Still walking on the edge of where the dark begins These echoes of a battle Scars I've never shown I can't see the end Lost in the unknown Fighting endless combat I’m losing to myself How long can I hold on In this forsaken hell You're my reflection You've watched me burn I've walked through fire But now it's your turn Every breath feels like a fight Clawing through the dark But I'm not alright I'm punching the wall just to feel a thing Addicted to violence, your puppet on strings Suffocating myself, till my heartbeat returns Still trapped in your fire, where sanity burns These echoes of a battle Scars I've never shown I can’t see the end Lost in the unknown Fighting endless combat I'm losing to myself How long can I hold on In this forsaken hell
