Splintered Mind lyrics

A Splintered Mind

I got my triggers, it’s symptomatic

Got my reactions they’re automatic

And after all that I’ve been through

I project my fears on you

I’ve got my memories

Places I’ve been

Like wooden fragments stuck in my skin

And after all that i’ve been through

Try to hide my scars from you

I don’t want you to know

Cos I don’t want you to go

Could you still love me with a splintered mind

Could you still want me when you don’t know what you might find

Behind this shattered lens I see the world through

Colouring my thoughts, distorting my view

If I let you see what’s broken inside of me

Could you still love me

With a splintered mind

Sometimes I get so stuck in my head

Sometimes I can’t get out of my bed

This is just a side effect

You know I really want to connect

It’s cracked and it’s scarred

But I would, would give you my heart

Will you take me as I am

Would you catch me when I fall

Could you take me as I am

Will you catch me when I fall

If the splinter ran deeper could you help me pull it out
