Spare me your judgments and spare me your dreams
'Cause recently mine have been tearing my seams
I sit alone in this winter clarity which clouds my mindAlone in the wind and the rain you left me
It's getting dark darling, too dark to see
And I'm on my knees and your faith in shreds, it seemsCorrupted by the simple sniff of riches blown
I know you have felt much more love than you've shown
And I'm on my knees and the water creeps to my chestBut plant your hope with good seeds
Don't cover yourself with thistle and weeds
Rain down, rain down on meLook over your hills and be still
The sky above us shoots to kill
Rain down, rain down on meBut I will hold on, I will hold on hope
Oh, I will hold on, I will hold on hope
Oh, I will hold on, I will hold on hope
I will hold on, I will hold on hope
I will hold on, I will hold onI begged you to hear me, there's more than flesh and bones
Let the dead bury the dead, they will come out in droves
But take the spade from my hands and fill in the holes you've madeBut plant your hope with good seeds
Don't cover yourself with thistle and weeds
Rain down, rain down on me
