Artist: the nixons
Song: shine
She walks into the room, says, "What can I do for you today?"
Started out hard, now it's just a job gets easier everyday
When she was seventeen she had so many dreams, my how things change
Left her one night after inventing a fight, another mouth on the way
What did you want? When you began?
How do you think you came to this end?
Now, you're aching, aching, say, "This pain is mine"
Wanting, waiting, waiting to shine
Steps into the room everything goes black, that's all she said she knew
Every few months somebody gets rough, really nothing new
She closes her eyes, dreams of a time, dreams a better way
Now, she only wants a life for the one in her life gets her through the day
What did you want? When you began?
How do you think you came to this end?
Now, you're aching, aching, say, "This pain is mine"
Wanting, waiting, waiting to shine
What do you see? Becoming to clear
Close your eyes, it will all disappear
Now, your aching, aching it's all in your mind
Wanting, waiting, waiting to shine
Know that you're hoping, hoping you'll find
Only wanting you to shine
When she was seventeen she had such dreams
My how things change
