[Verse 1] Shine your light, shine it bright As warm as the sun’s healing light Let it melt away Grief and sorrows cold today When the room goes still And your hands won’t hold the ache You can keep one spark Till the dark begins to break [Pre-Chorus] When sympathy feels hollow, not the same And empathy gives out more shards of pain Tragedy’s winter trying to drive you insane So hold tight to your lights flame [Chorus] Shine your light Shine it bright Warm your heart Make it right Shine your light Shine it bright Hold it close Through the night (shine it bright) [Verse 2] I saw you standing in the cold air On a day that wouldn’t bend Your eyes were dim and bare Like you had only loss without end Every bruise will fade Every wound needs room to breathe Let the heavy price be paid Let others help lift and heave If the cold keeps coming in Take some fire from me I can sit and start by listening Till the light helps you to see clearly [Pre-Chorus] When sympathy feels hollow, not the same And empathy gives out more shards of pain Tragedy’s winter trying to drive you insane So hold tight to your lights flame [Chorus] Shine your light Shine it bright Warm your heart Make it right Shine your light Shine it bright Hold it close Through the night (shine it bright) [Bridge] If the ice won’t move Let the ember talk If the road feels long Let your heartbeat walk No one has to win Just to make it through One small flame can change What the cold can do [Final Chorus] Shine your light Shine it bright Warm your heart Make it right Shine your light Shine it bright Hold it close Through the night (shine it bright) Shine your light Shine it bright Let it live In us tonight (shine it bright)
