Splinters Lyrics

Count their names now one by one
The first is the last to leave
And winter seemed so far away
If only I believed

Familiar rooms have left no trace
Empty walls where people stare
If only I could change the day
My spirit walks upon the air

Across this space that lies between us
I raise my hands
Against the glass in splinters red and white
And in this place that lies between us
I understand
To break the glass in splinters red and white

We play in mirrors
Dance like shadows
Until the end we kiss the rain
The wedding song that plays for no one
Fallen they will shine again
I can feel the heat and flesh
I can see the closing hand
And still you fall inside my sleep
We spiral like a drowning man Across this space that lies between us
I raise my hands
Against the glass in splinters red and white
And in this place that lies between us
I understand
To break the glass in splinters red and white

Count their names now one by one
The first is the last to leave
And winter seemed so far away
If only I believed

Familiar rooms have left no trace
Empty walls where people stare
If only I could change the day
My spirit walks upon the air

Across this space that lies between us
I raise my hands
Against the glass in splinters red and white
And in this place that lies between us
I understand
To break the glass in splinters red and white
