Summer hands, they paint pastel skies and storms for pastel eyes, but no goodbyes
And a goodbye’s what I needed to keep these summer fingers painting on

We’ll be loved someday for the dreams we’ve had
But you throw love away at the first chance you get
We all fall away and catch ourselves dreaming on the floor
Of warmer days where questions have no answers
My questions get no answers now

Let your light shine down on me

Covered hands, they keep blood barely moving around my bones, but I’m not alone
My letters still send with no replies, your blood runs cold. It was your choice, not mine

We’ll be loved someday for the dreams we’ve had
But you throw love away at the first chance you get
We all fall away and catch ourselves dreaming on the floor
Of warmer days where questions have no answers
My questions get no answers now

Let your light shine down on me

There comes a time when these sensations mix in chilling air
And we find that emptiness is a pestilence we share
We dig our graves and lay in them if only to keep warm
And to remind of better days we’re holding on to better days we’re holding on.

Let your light shine down on me
