Story Behind the Song
"Shine" is really a song about baptism of the soul, and the lust for the highest aspirations of life & love.
Lyrics
SHINE
(Williams/Maston/Gunshore/Fournier)
Morning, I'm a runaway train...blowing through your head
I am not myself today, I am not myself today
I am feeling like a spectacle, high above the ring
I am not myself to day, no, I am not myself today
But it's alright,...Sometimes it's gonna be like,
Nothing, but it's alright...No, I won't be living on my knees
All I really want to do,...is shine, shine
All I really want to do is shine
Yeah, all I really want to do,...is shine, shine
All I really want to do is shine.
Hello saviour, hello ghost,...ain't I the host with the most?
I am not myself today, no I am not myself today, lo', I was
swinging in the trees, but you keep on after me, I am not myself today...I am not myself today
But it's alright, running from the daylight
Hiding, but it's alright,...you know my door is open, come on in...
(Chorus)
If I stumble, when I fall won't you help me off my knees?
Kiss my soul, and believe my lies, put a love on me,
So all I hear is angels sing...
Whn I cry, when I scream, won't you rock my soul to sleep
Roll me down, sing to me, love me so hard there the angels hide their wings
