Shine Lyrics by Everclear

Welcome to the Drama Club

2006

[Intro]
Mmm, yeah, oh
Yeah

[Chorus]
Shine, open up your life and shine your light
Oh, shine, open up and show the freak inside

[Verse 1]
Words don't mean nothing
His words don't mean nothing
He has no shame
He will say anything just to get what he needs
He says he needs the right girl
To heal his hurt and change his world
He will say anything to make her think
He is the man she wants him to be

[Chorus]
Shine, open up your life and shine your light
Oh-whoa, shine, open up and show the freak inside

[Verse 2]
The girl had a good plan
To find herself a good man
The kind of guy that you hear about
But you never seem to meet
She hides behind those bright eyes
Fake smiles, and sex, and white lies
Yeah, she is trying too hard
To be the way that she thinks she's supposed to be

[Pre-Chorus]
Come on, shine, shine
Yeah, let me see you, shine, shine
Yeah, I wanna see you, shine, shine
Come on, let me see you

[Chorus]
Open up and shine your light
Open up and show the world the freak inside

[Verse 3]
You are afraid to shine to see what's deep inside
Go, find your freak, and let it drive
Yeah, you are afraid to shine to see what's deep inside
Go, find your freak and let it glide
Oh, you sing the same old song
Been in the dark too long
There's so much more than meets the eye, yeah
Don't be afraid to shine
Go, find out who you are inside
Just go and find your freak and let it fly

[Pre-Chorus]
Let me see you, shine, shine
Yeah, let me see you, shine, shine
Yeah, I wanna see you, shine, shine
Come on, let me see you, shine, shine
Oh, come on, let me see you, shine, shine
Let me see you, shine, shine
Whoa, come on, come on let me see you, shine, shine
Yeah, let me see you, shine, shine
Come on, let me see you, shine, shine
Let me see you, shine, shine
I wanna see you, shine, shine
Yeah, let me see you

[Chorus]
Open up and shine your light
Open up and show the world the freak inside
