Lyrics {The Summer We Raised You} 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
