Lyrics Hamilton Leithauser – The Smallest Splinter

Text:

Of course you decided to stand on your own
When the pain has come, and has gone
Oh, I guess I probably love you more than I want

Show me the man who would have shown more

Give me the lion’s share of your love
But see a smallest splinter locked up away forever
If that’s love you wished for

Show me the men who won your whole heart
Hit me again ’cause I’ve been sewn up
Each day is like the other, I sit alone and wonder
What’s left to ask for

Give me a kiss and tell me I’m alright
Show me the men who never disappoints
They say it’s all or nothing, I say I’ll take what I can
I’ll never play the victim

Hit me again ’cause I’ve been sewn up
Give me the lion’s share of your love
When the undecided takes charge and keeps some order
Against this endless river and I do care now

Give me the lion’s share of your love
I never asked for nothing no more
Give me the lion’s share of your love
Hit me again and I’ll let you know
