Skylight

words & music by Nate Shelkey

The sun’s coming up
So I’m waking up too
And I’ve opened my eyes
To something I never knew

You see all of my friends
They want me to forget
But it’s easy to say
So hard when you met

You’re caught on the sidewalk
With nothing to say when
You’re trying to smile
Let that light back in

Like the skylight

The sun’s up above
It’s almost high noon
So I’ll hide things inside
Things I always knew

You see all of my friends
They want me to move on
It’s easy to say
So hard when you’ve fallen

You’re caught on the sidewalk
With nothing to say when
You’re trying to smile
Let that light back in

Like the skylight

The sun’s setting now
So I’ll settle instead
I’ve stopped making wishes
I’ll just make my bed

You see all of my friends
They want me to know
It’s harder to hear
It’s just easy to go

You’re caught on the sidewalk
With nothing to say when
You’re trying to smile
Let that light back in

Like the skylight
