Splinters Lyrics

Self sent a twister
A tearing after me
Gonna bust my house to splinters, yes
And take all that's dear to me

You say you saw it comin' yeah
But still you did not flee
I was too weak, I couldn't move
Held by growth of a tree

And yes i fell upon that rock
I did not die, just badly broken
And in time, my healing it will come, yeah
By the words that he has spoken

Oh yeah
I fell upon that rock

Who is it now that loves you?
Straight in the front door and crooked out the back yeah
What is it now you're a slave to?
On your knees out in your shack

I fell upon that rock, yeah

He's beyond the shadow
Of your doubt and mine
He's no man's opinion
He is truth divine

Self sent a twister
A tearing after me
Gonna bust my house to splinters yeah
And took all that's dear to me

Who is it now that loves you
Straight in the front door and crooked out the back, yeah
What is it now that you pray to
As your world begins to crack, yeah

I fell upon that rock, yeah

He's beyond the shadow
Of your doubt an' mine
He's no man's opinion
He's truth divine

An' yes I fell upon that rock
I did not die just badly broken
An' in time my healing came, yeah
By the words that he had spoken
