If it splinters should I know it's to be broken It's not what I pictured things to be It's not what I meant to explode I don't want to carry this on my shoulders Keep this away Nothing's solid, nothing's saved It's all in splinters Always numbers when it should be broken Nothing's sacred I don't want to see you go through the vital things that they say Cause it's tearing you apart And there's no excuses For the traps that they lay Nothing's sacred these days Didn't want to let them cut through to me So welcome me down into this Down here at the bottom it's dry and thin So welcome me down into this
