Shine Lyrics

And on the day that she was born

The angels came with bitter disappointment

A lost lamb in the lion's den

To be vicarious was her anointment

And sister sweet and daddy dear

Had that kind of spark that makes you weary

And so she sat in 'I love you land'

And her hopes grew small and her optimism bleary.

'Cause they all said "Wow"

They all said "What a shame"

"You're so different... Who's to blame?"

And she said:

"Why don't you let me just

Shine my own way?

Why don't you let me just

Shine my own damn way?

Just let me shine."

And when she grew, she ran away

Far from shadowlands and suffocation

To normal life and normal friends

And she never ever spoke

About her shiny fine relations

Just in case.

They all said "Wow"

They all said "What a shame"

"You're so different... Who's to blame?"

And she said:

"Why don't you let me just

Shine my own way?

Why don't you let me just

Shine my own damn way?

Just let me shine."
