Shine

Oh, the night makes you a star

And it holds you cold in its arms

You're the one to whom nobody verses "I love you"

Unless you say it first

So you lie there, holding your breath

And it's strange how soon you forget

That you're like stars, they only show up when it's dark

'Cause they don't know their worth



And I think you need to stop following misery's lead

Shine away, shine away, shine away



[Chorus]

Isn't it time you got over

How fragile you are

We're all waiting, waiting on your supernova

'Cause that's who you are

And you've only begun to shine



There are times

When the poets and porn stars align

And you won't know who to believe in

Well, that's a good time to be leaving

And the past, he knocks on your door

And throws stones at your window at four in the morning

Well, maybe he thinks it's romantic

He's crazy, but you knew that before



And I think you need to stop following misery's lead

Shine away, shine away, shine away



[Chorus]

Isn't it time you got over

How fragile you are

We're all waiting, waiting on your supernova

'Cause that's who you are

And you've only begun to shine

Yeah, you've only begun to shine



Won't you shine, shine, shine

Shine over shadow, oh, oh

Shine, shine, shine

Shine over shadow, oh, oh

Shine, shine, shine, shine over



I think you need to stop following misery's lead

Shine away, shine away, shine away



[Chorus]

Isn't it time you got over

How fragile you are

We're all waiting, waiting on your supernova

'Cause that's who you are

And you've only begun to shine

Yeah, you've only begun to shine

Yeah, you've only begun to shine
