Shine

It's getting hard to fake,
this smile every day,
this broken heart you take,
then quickly throw away,
I'm stuck inside this place,
was this a mistake,
just longing for your face,
I cannot stand this ache,

My head is such a mess,
I'm broken, I confess,
feeling so depressed,
a feeling I detest,
and in the end I find,
that you were never mine,
you're leaving me behind,
but one day I'll shine,

If the sun would cease to shine,
I don't think I'd care,
if I could look into your eyes,
you'd be my solar flare,
but you have left me here,
yeah, you have gone away,
in this darkness I see clear,
I see it clear as day,

My head is such a mess,
I'm broken, I confess,
feeling so depressed,
a feeling I detest,
and in the end I find,
that you were never mine,
you're leaving me behind,
but one day I'll shine,

I'm rising from the ash,
emerging from debris,
forgetting my own past,
your getting over me,
it's a brand new day,
and today I'm feeling fine,
you're no longer in my way,
now it's my time to shine,

I'm no longer a mess,
not broken, I confess,
feeling so blessed,
this feeling I like best,
and in the end you'll find,
you'll be wishing you were mine,
but I'm leaving you behind,
because today I'll shine,
