What If I Shine

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I spend too much time thinking about Who  I'm supposed to be I  play by everybody's rules That don't seem right to me [Pre-Chorus 1] I'm cool and polite, on the outside When  I get a chance, I run and I hide If  your eyes are closed, it's hard to see [Chorus 1] What if I back down now 'Cause  I'm afraid of what might happen What if they turn away When I show them who I truly am What if I lose my breath When  I throw those big doors open Or tonight, just tonight What if I shine? [Verse 2] Should I even care? They're all sitting there, and everyone's staring at me If I step out in the spotlight, maybe I'll be set free [Chorus 1] What if I back down now 'Cause I'm afraid of what might happen What if they turn away When I show them who I truly am What if I lose my breath When I throw those big doors open Or tonight, just tonight What if I shine? [Bridge] I... shine... I spend too much time thinking about Who I'm supposed to be [Chorus 2] But what if I sing out loud? Because anything can happen What if I stand up proud And I show them who I truly am? They're gonna call my name And I'll throw these big doors open 'Cause tonight, just tonight I'm gonna shine [Outro] I... shine...
