Splintered

They never taught us how to love So we use our pain To comfort us And we never practice what we preach Instead, we find Someone else to teach We try not to see with our eyes We fill our plates With dozens of lies We try so hard to keep it in We turn away From what lies within We are splintered And we are rotten Deep within the walls that we've forgotten All the answers To all our problems Lie within the one who tries to dodge them Ooooh, ooooh Ooooh, ooooh We're so afraid to be alone So we hoard our pain And call it home They never taught us how to look inside Only how to run and how to dry our eyes We dig ourselves into a ditch How many of us die And pretend to live? We stop the life from leakin' in When we turn away From what lies within We are splintered And we are rotten Deep within the walls that we've forgotten All the answers To all our problems Lie within the one who tries to dodge them We are splintered And we are rotten Deep under the floorboards we've forgotten But all the answers To all our problems Lie within the one who tries to dodge them Ooooh, ooooh Ooooh, ooooh
