We met the bones of us in our old backyard
And i dug ’em all up with nothing but an old guitar
And the past starts talking with younger souls
About the dreams that we started off with
Before we both let go
And it’s time to figure out
Time to figure out
Time to figure out
This war
Time to figure out
Time to figure out
Figure out who I’m fighting for
Into the unknown
Let’s follow this through
I’m fighting for us
But most of all for you
Our hearts like a flood
That washes us new
I’m fighting for us
But most of all for you
Most of all for you
And the clock moves forward
We let our love get sore
It was one of those arguments
Can’t remember what the fight was for
I heard the front door slam and
After the aftermath
I saw you smiling back at me
From a box of photographs
And it’s time to figure out
Time to figure out
Time to figure out
This war
Time to figure out
Time to figure out
Figure out what I’m fighting for
Into the unknown
Let’s follow this through
I’m fighting for us
But most of all for you
Splinter
It’s only illusions
It’s only an ebb and flow
It’s only a re-run
It’s only a so and so
It’s only a glimpse now
It’s only a glancing blow
It’s only a mind game
It’s only rock and roll
It’s only allegiance
It’s only heart and soul
Just tell me a lie now
Just tell me you can’t let go
It’s only illusions
It’s only illusions
My mind is at war
I lie awake in bed
Like a splinter in my hand
Like a splinter in my head
The promises we’ve sworn
And every word you’ve said
Like a splinter in my hand
Like a splinter in my head
Don’t worry pedro
Don’t tell me i think i know
Cause i’m on the payroll
The cursed kaleidoscope
Am i the pollution?
Am i the foregone conclusion?
It’s only illusions
It’s only illusions
It’s only de-evolution
Who can take these broken splinters from my head?
It’s only illusion, it’s only illusion
In all this confusion
I start to forget what i’m doing
It’s only a splinter in my hand
It’s only a splinter in my head
It’s only illusion
