Splinters

Take this sliver off my leg, Even if I scream and beg
For you to leave me just the same, As I was on that day

Rip it off like a bandaid, It might scar but that'll be okay
Im better off this way, Moving on and learning from the mistakes

Just like when we were young
Oh the way that splinter stung
You want it out but still you run to avoid the pain
A lost love isn't always bad
You might gain more than you had
I don't have anymore to say but time will tell
I've been stubborn I've been young
I know I'm not the only one
We all dread the change to come but we need it still
Do you remember your first tattoo
The one that I gave to you
Mistakes were made
But you were it to this day

Sometimes the memory is the shame
Sometimes the beauty is filled with pain
Sometimes the comfort is the crutch
Sometimes it all feels like its to much

I don't need it but I do
I don't need it Because Ive got you
And you've got me too
