Some love is a splinter
Falls off on its own
If you're lucky to notice it was
Ever there at all
Some love is a stab wound
You hope to come out clean
Some scar over quickly
Others fall apart at the seams
But some love will wreck ya
Fragile as a bomb
Yeah once the pin's pulled
The damage lingers on like
Shrapnel
Stuck under my skin
Fighting a battle that you
Were always gonna win
Left me with the pieces
And expect me to make peace with
Shrapnel
Some love is like poison
Lays you out for awhile
When it's out of your system
You're just glad that you survived
Some love is like fire
Get too close to the spark
Then after it burns out
You're left there in the dark
Some love will change ya
Some love can heal
I'm trying to get there
But all that I can feel is
Shrapnel
Stuck under my skin
Fighting a battle that you
Were always gonna win
Left me with the pieces
And expect me to make peace with
Shrapnel
Thought our love was an ocean
As deep as it was wide
Oh I was caught off guard
To find the water dried
You left me alone there
West of the shore line
I can almost see the ghost of me
On the other side
Shrapnel
Stuck under my skin
Fighting a battle that you
Were always gonna win
Left me with the pieces
And expect me to make peace with
Shrapnel
