Splinters

borrowed time
they say sublime
i'm lost here in this
changing out of wine

prince or priest?
reject the feast
i'm heaven's only daughter
neighbour of the beast

take all these splinters
and send them to the trees
they said i was so cold
but i'd prefer to freeze

oh mystic men
dry your poison pens
i'm in the mood for dancing
my heresy's all spent

it's borrowed time
from mercy's rhyme
i'm drowning in this water
changing out of wine

take all these splinters
and send them to the trees
they said i was so cold
but i'd prefer to freeze

oh in this place
i'ts getting colder still
oh in this place
it's getting cold

blood divine
perfect design
your subject to denial
the print is just too fine

prince or priest?
reject the feast
i'm heaven's only daughter
neighbour of the beast

take all these splinters
and send them to the trees
they said i was so cold
but i'd prefer to freeze
