Splinter (with salem ilese)
I keep
Having this dream
Now we talk till I lose my teeth
And you look at me like there's nothing wrong
You just smile
Looking cool and calm
While I go on and on
And I'm still afraid when I wake up
It's harder having something to lose
I could lose it in a minute
If something good has got to go, I wanna go with it
It's harder having something to lose
Oh baby, I don't want this shoe to drop
Don't wanna make it stop
'Cause I think we got too close for comfort
Love, I let you in like a killer
I think we got too close for comfort
Babe, you're under my skin like a splinter
It's harder having something to lose
Having something to lose
It's harder having something to lose
It's harder having something to lose
Having something to lose
It's harder having something to lose
You seem so good with me
I forget that I'm terrified
I've never known
A guy who could be so kind
And you say so simply
"Babe, we're fine"
While I'm freaking out inside
Sometimes I wish I could read your mind
It's harder having something to lose
I could lose it in a minute
If something good has got to go, I wanna go with it
It's harder having something to lose
Oh baby, I don't want this shoe to drop
Don't wanna make it stop
'Cause I think we got too close for comfort
Love, I let you in like a killer
I think we got too close for comfort
Babe, you're under my skin like a splinter
It's harder having something to lose
Having something to lose
It's harder having something to lose
It's harder having something to lose
Having something to lose
It's harder having something to lose
Having this dream
Now we talk till I lose my teeth
And you look at me like there's nothing wrong
You just smile
Looking cool and calm
While I go on and on
And I'm still afraid when I wake up
It's harder having something to lose
I could lose it in a minute
If something good has got to go, I wanna go with it
It's harder having something to lose
Oh baby, I don't want this shoe to drop
Don't wanna make it stop
'Cause I think we got too close for comfort
Love, I let you in like a killer
I think we got too close for comfort
Babe, you're under my skin like a splinter
It's harder having something to lose
Having something to lose
It's harder having something to lose
It's harder having something to lose
Having something to lose
It's harder having something to lose
You seem so good with me
I forget that I'm terrified
I've never known
A guy who could be so kind
And you say so simply
"Babe, we're fine"
While I'm freaking out inside
Sometimes I wish I could read your mind
It's harder having something to lose
I could lose it in a minute
If something good has got to go, I wanna go with it
It's harder having something to lose
Oh baby, I don't want this shoe to drop
Don't wanna make it stop
'Cause I think we got too close for comfort
Love, I let you in like a killer
I think we got too close for comfort
Babe, you're under my skin like a splinter
It's harder having something to lose
Having something to lose
It's harder having something to lose
It's harder having something to lose
Having something to lose
It's harder having something to lose
