lyrics

I don't care all that much for the Summer
The burning heat makes my mind spin
A vortex churning deep inside of my head
Swirling my soul on towards the dead

But I know that others love it so much
So who am I to steal away their joy
Never had many friends anyway
So I hope they enjoy the heat today

Beauty comes in many forms
Rays of gold and Autumn storms
Sunshine bathing all I see
And yet I know this beauty is not for me

Sublime sunshine

I always preferred the Fall and Winter
Bundling up against the cold wind
The changing leaves upon the old trees
Soon to drift and float down all around me

I know that other people hate it so much
The chill of December descending on their homes
They always come out for the gold of the sun
But they also come to take away my Autumn

And joy comes in many forms
But so does torment and scorn
The sun shines down all around me
But they blind my eyes to the beauty

Sublime sunshine

Clouds above so soft and white
Kissing the blue of the sky
Up above where angels soar
Out here where the cold winds roar

The sun is just out of grasp
Fingers strain and grab at last
Here where all the ospreys cry
Up here where the eagles fly

White in the black
Cannot turn back
Gold in my eyes
As my spirit dies

Sublime sunshine

The Earth below me grey like slate
Oceans bubble pain and rage
Down where all the devils lie
And where all the strangers cry

My fingers coiling white and hot
I remember every time I've fought
The heat burns my mind to ash
As I kiss the sun so vast

White in my heart
Eternity starts
Gold in my soul
Burning away the cold and coal

Sublime sunshine
