In The Splinters

[Verse 1]

I stand all slanted now

A statue on one leg

Your initials, dark and red

Scratched into the boardwalk in ballpoint pen

[Pre-Chorus]

Any other night, but not this one

Any other night, I'd wish the world would end

[Chorus]

On any other night, I'd wish the world would end

But much to my surprise, I'm swept away again

[Verse 2]

I stand in the splinters

A stranger in my own skin

You tried your best to knock me down

But someone came along and built me up again

[Pre-Chorus]

Any other night, but not this one

Any other night, I'd wish the world would end

[Chorus]

On any other night, I'd wish the world would end

But much to my surprise, I'm swept away again

[Outro]

La-da-da, da-dum-da-dah, da-dah

I'm swept away again

I'm swept away again

I'm swept away again

I'm swept away
