Shine

I wasn't supposed to live this long
But death stayed far away
Didn't think that I'd have what it takes
To keep fighting

Never thought I'd get this old
The world once seemed too cold
To stay in it
For too long

And things got worse
Before they got better
Tried to run from life
But it's grip was tighter

So I learned
To fight for my life

Didn't think that I
Would still be alive Tonight
So hold on tight
Because you're in for a ride

Didn't think that I
Would ever stop wanting to die
But even when storm clouds rise
I just wait for the sun to come out and
Shine
Shine

Never been afraid to die
'Cause at least it was an end
I used to be afraid to live
But I'd always play pretend

I was beat down
Cut off
Messed up
Never taught how to love

Didn't think I deserved to be here
Didn't think I wanted to be here

It took hitting rock bottom
Quite too many times
Reached out to my blood
But it seems that that ran dry

My life is far from perfect
But I'm still alive
And I never would have learned to be happy
If I died

Didn't think that I
Would still be alive Tonight
So hold on tight
Because you're in for a ride

Didn't think that I
Would ever stop wanting to die
But even when storm clouds rise
I just wait for the sun to come out and
Shine
Shine

I'm so happy that you're still alive
I'm so glad that we're still trying
I know that life gets dark sometimes
But I'll be here with your hand in mine
Oh
We're gonna be just fine

Didn't think that I
Would still be alive Tonight
So hold on tight
Because you're in for a ride

Didn't think that I
Would ever stop wanting to die
But even when storm clouds rise
I just wait for the sun to come out and

Didn't think that I
Would still be alive Tonight
So hold on tight
Because you're in for a ride

Didn't think that I
Would ever stop wanting to die
But even when storm clouds rise
I just wait for the sun to come out

Shine
Shine
Shine
Shine
