The Summer We Raised You Songtext

von Years Around the Sun

Confess my sins to the falling rain
They all come down like radio waves
And I cut my teeth on the torture and pain
But no one seems to notice

Cantilever my sight will stretch this span
Crossing over a sea, a sea of red
And I throw my seeds in a hole
Into the earth but nothing grows

The summer we sat in the sun we raised you

Slowly, your sent it fades like yesterday
And the only thing that I have
Is an empty house that's filled with your effigy
Now I'm forced to sit alone and

Cantilever my sight will stretch this span
Crossing over a sea, a sea of red
And I throw my seeds in a hole
Into the earth but nothing grows

And maybe someday I will come around
When the buildings have fallen and plants have covered the ground

The summer we sat in the sun we raised you
