Lyrics

today the sun didn't shine / not only in the sky /
but when i looked into your eyes / i looked into your eyes /
the broken came through and the bitter too like a biting winter wind /
that leaves you cold / cold to the bone / you were so cold
what do you look forward to / does each day feel like a thrift store suit /
that you just put on but it never fits quite right because it wasn't made for you /
but this day was made for you

we all hate to feel the days go by when we're just struggling to survive /
but that's what we do / that's what we do /
so we crawl into some thicker skin determined nothing gets in /
but it was meant to / it was meant to /
and we wonder if life will always feel alone

what kind of world will we leave to our children when we're older /
hands that are closed / hearts that are hard and just growing colder /
or can we muster up a hope for them believing better days can be ahead /
and that life is worth the scars because at least you had a chance to bleed

let love sink into your blood / let it warm your skin / feel your life begin
