Shine - The Used

How long was I sleeping?

did you wake me?

didn’t feel like all that long

Do I see the morning?

no it can’t be happened to me

I’ve been stuck in the quicksand, more the pavement colours black and white too

long

I could black out completely, but I made me, make my way back slowly

It’s my time to shine, do it my way cuz it’s my time baby

It’s my time to burn, start a fire, be the one and only

I said it

I meant it

I never will forget it

Change never happens by itself

It’s my time to burn, my time to shine

Time to make it for myself

How long was I buried?

couldn’t find me, laid to rest, my heart beats on

Kept track of the symptoms, could’ve killed me but you will see

I’m not broken, I could be.

yeah you would be but my heart is much too strong

Never thought it was easy, but I made me, I made me slowly…

It’s my time to shine, do it my way cuz it’s my time baby

It’s my time to burn, start a fire, be the one and only

I said it

I meant it

I never will forget it

Change never happens by itself

It’s my time to burn, my time to shine

Time to make it for myself

Don’t be sad, I know you will.

it’s just the way it has to be

I could never stay the same

It’s always high, always low, and almost never in between

There is no one left to blame

I can’t stay

I have to change

It’s my time to shine, do it my way.

it’s my time baby

It’s my time to burn, start a fire, be the one and only

I said it

I meant it

I never will forget it

Change never happens by itself

It’s my time to burn, my time to shine

Time to make it for myself

Make a choice, shine on shine on

Do it your way, shine on shine on
