Shine

Shine

I heard her sing

I need a voice given anything

All I want to dream

Flattery

Days that never come

To shine a light on the damage done

Somedays without a sound

I feel the dark even closer now

I wear it, a winter coat

I'm far away but not far enough

What's true is torn

And shouted down

The world's at my feet

And it turns when I speak

And it shines

Shine and all that is

Comes down upon me

Shine and all that is

Sleep, it never comes

I lay awake

All the shutters drawn

Look at me I'm shamed

My bottle done

I hear her beating down on dirty wings

I feel the room move under me

I'm far away but not far enough

What's true is torn

And out of place

The world's at my feet

And it turns when I speak

And it shines

Shine

I heard her sing

A crooked voice and a dirty wings

Beating under me

Flattery

The world's at my feet

And it turns when I speak

On its drums and its wheels

Shine

Shine and all that is

Comes down upon me

Shine and all that is

Comes down upon me

Shine and all that is

Comes down upon me
