Shine - Alexi Murdoch

I wonder why

We are the way we are

Yes I wonder why

We are the way we are

And why

We only love each from afar

This is how we are fading

This is how we are fading

Time

Time

You spend your days

Watching the door

Yeah you spend your whole life waiting

But you don’t know what for

You have everything you need right here

Still you want more

Oh this is how we are fading

This is how we are fading

Time

Time

Well I didn’t come here

Looking for a soul

And I’m tired of watching dust

Collecting on a bowl

I’m a spirit trying to be human

I’m just a spirit trying to be human

But I’m thinking this is how we are fading

This is how we are fading

Time

Time

You hold on to yourself

You’re afraid that you might

Get left behind

And so you hide your eyes

You’re afraid that the light

Will make you blind

But it’s time

It’s time to shine

Yes it’s time to believe in what you know

Time to believe in what you know

Time to believe in what you know

And you don’t need strength to be strong

Time to believe in what you know

No, you don’t need strength to be strong

Time to believe in what you know

Time to believe in what you know

Time to believe in what you know

Time to believe in what you know

Time to believe before you go
