CHAPTER VII: SPLINTERED Lyrics

("I know")

("Hello?")

I know in a year I'll look back and be proud of what I did

But right now I really hate it when I peel off the lid

Of my emotions, in an ocean of my own self doubt

I wanna scream cause without music, what is my life about?

I'm hyper focused on this purpose that I keep writing about

Scared that maybe I'll hand in my notice and I'll be left in a drought

Cause I'm fixated, frustrated, wish I had formulated an out

Am I a devout?

Yeah, I get burnt out

I know I've made a couple hundred mistakes

Maybe that's why I now sometimes hesitate

Stuck in a room but I can see a few doors

So I'll break the ceiling and I'll fall through the floor

If you go, always know

You're still somewhere in my mind

One day, I'd press rewind

And if you go, always know

That you'd still be my lifeline

Never could leave you behind

I know in ten years I'll look back and say "wow, I did that"

But right now I feel stuck and the light is lacking

Take a swing, do my thing, wishing I could have a win

Cause maybe that's all I need to really feel something

It's devastating, I waste time and now my time is wasting...

Away, is it my fault? Am I to blame?

It's easy to point the finger, got me like a splinter

I guess I'm the sinker, my light is on the blinker

I know I've made a couple hundred mistakes

Maybe that's why I now sometimes hesitate

Stuck in a room but I can see a few doors

So I'll break the ceiling and I'll fall through the floor

If you go, always know

You're still somewhere in my mind

One day, I'd press rewind

And if you go, always know

That you'd still be my lifeline

Never could leave you behind

This pain is like a splinter

Sharp and intense

Deep in my skin

Stuck on the fence

A metaphorical chain

In my left-side brain

No comfort in my name

Maybe I'll see you again

When you go, always know

(I love you so, I love you so, I love you so)

When you go, always know

(I love you so, I love you so, I love you so)
