[Verse 1]

Here I lie again inside this broken body

Wrestle against the tree, my muscles aching

To get up now is death, to die is to really live

Flesh is restless, twisting, spasms in my back increasing


[Chorus]

Splinter me, splinter me

My heart, my head

Splinter me


[Verse 2]

Here I think again to try to solve this puzzle

What is not yours I do not want, my mind aching

To reconstruct my thoughts or let it blow away

You are all-knowing, changing, yeah you arekilling me


[Chorus]

Splinter me, splinter me

My heart, my head

Splinter me


[Verse 3]

Jesus whispered softly, Jesus shouted it out

His kingdom body coming

But we nail Him up and hate each other


[Chorus]

Splinter me, splinter me

My broken body

Splinter me

Splinter me, splinter me

My broken body

Splinter me
