Nothing in this world Seems to function without tears You oughta' know There's no need to pull yourself apart Nothing you can do seems to matter without love You oughta' know Everything you've got will be enough All the things you are Could stay locked up inside far from the light of day It's much more than a matter of pride Can't you hear them saying Shine Let it be a light that burns within Open up and Shine Never mind the darkness closing in You can rise above and Shine Just close your eyes and shine Whatever you may do Don't forget about the little things small as they may seem They all add up to someone else's dreams Whatever you may think No one wants to show you the way you can be the one There's no better time to call the play All the things you do Will stay with you wherever you go no use in trying to hide It's much more than a matter of show All you've got to do is Shine Let it be a light that burns within Open up and Shine Never mind the darkness closing in You can rise above and Shine Just close your eyes and
