Jesse Malin - Shining Down

We never got a break
We live with our mistakes
Just icing on the cake and some cold heartbreak
Sentimental kids
With movies in our heads
We never figured out why she had to go

Keep on shining down on my life
Keep on shining down on me

We always were to blame
They changed the family name
Another sad refrain but I won't look back
I found another path
Through the broken glass
Everything was trash but it all worked out

Keep on shining down on my life
Keep on shining down on my life
Keep on shining down on me

I act like nothing hurts
The bar becomes a church
A limousine, a hearse and you don't look back
The one that couldn't fail
Married or in jail
Had moments of success in the shadow of the best

Keep on shining down on my life
Keep on shining down on me
