My Time (Shine My Light)
You did me like trash
You made me feel attacked
You made my world so flat
You never gave my heart back
I always tried to love you
But you never seemed to budge
Girl, I wanted to be all yours
But you never noticed that much
It's my time to shine my light
Going my own way
It's my time to shine my light
Never will stay
It's my time to shine my light
Going my own way
It's my time to shine my light
Never will stay
Some days, only a hug was needed
Could never ask my true love too much
Attention would've been appreciated
But even that wouldn't give me luck
Got me in unexplained emotions
Not recognizing how I feel
Never could've had a single moment
And for you, my heart was worth to steal
You and I are nothing but a false image
Not capturing the perfect one
So it's up to me to tell myself
"If it's gonna be like this, then I will be done"
Every disappointment leads to tears
Dying alone is my fear
Would've been lucky to call you my dear
But that won't happen since you're not here
It's my time to shine my light
Going my own way
It's my time to shine my light
Never will stay
It's my time to shine my light
Going my own way
It's my time to shine my light
Never will stay
So, tell me, girl, how you feelin'
Doesn't matter, 'cause I won't see you this weekend
Once you went away, my heart stopped
But I thank God I'm still breathin'
Hated myself for loving you
Should've known it was all a scam
But I still fell for what's not true
And that ain't the man I really am
It's my time to shine my light
Going my own way
It's my time to shine my light
Never will stay
It's my time to shine my light
Going my own way
It's my time to shine my light
Never will stay
It's my time to shine my light
Going my own way
It's my time to shine my light
Never will stay
It's my time to shine my light
Going my own way
It's my time to shine my light
Never will stay
Ooh, ooh
I'm leaving without you
You made me feel attacked
You made my world so flat
You never gave my heart back
I always tried to love you
But you never seemed to budge
Girl, I wanted to be all yours
But you never noticed that much
It's my time to shine my light
Going my own way
It's my time to shine my light
Never will stay
It's my time to shine my light
Going my own way
It's my time to shine my light
Never will stay
Some days, only a hug was needed
Could never ask my true love too much
Attention would've been appreciated
But even that wouldn't give me luck
Got me in unexplained emotions
Not recognizing how I feel
Never could've had a single moment
And for you, my heart was worth to steal
You and I are nothing but a false image
Not capturing the perfect one
So it's up to me to tell myself
"If it's gonna be like this, then I will be done"
Every disappointment leads to tears
Dying alone is my fear
Would've been lucky to call you my dear
But that won't happen since you're not here
It's my time to shine my light
Going my own way
It's my time to shine my light
Never will stay
It's my time to shine my light
Going my own way
It's my time to shine my light
Never will stay
So, tell me, girl, how you feelin'
Doesn't matter, 'cause I won't see you this weekend
Once you went away, my heart stopped
But I thank God I'm still breathin'
Hated myself for loving you
Should've known it was all a scam
But I still fell for what's not true
And that ain't the man I really am
It's my time to shine my light
Going my own way
It's my time to shine my light
Never will stay
It's my time to shine my light
Going my own way
It's my time to shine my light
Never will stay
It's my time to shine my light
Going my own way
It's my time to shine my light
Never will stay
It's my time to shine my light
Going my own way
It's my time to shine my light
Never will stay
Ooh, ooh
I'm leaving without you
