Splinter

Skillet

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 

Splinter me, splinter me 
My heart, my head 
Splinter me 

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're killing me 

Splinter me, splinter me 
My heart, my head 
Splinter me 

Jesus whispered softly, Jesus shouted it out 
His kingdom body coming 
But we nail him up and hate each other 

Splinter me, splinter me 
My broken body 
Splinter me 
Splinter me, splinter me 
My broken body 
Splinter me
