How long was I sleeping
Did you wake me
Didn't feel like all that long
Do I see the morning
No it can't be
Happened to me
I've been stuck in the quicksand
More the pavement
Colors black and white too long
I could black out completely
But I made me
Make my way back slowly (way back slowly)
(Chorus)
It's my time to shine
Do it my way
Cause it's my time baby
It's my time to burn
Start a fire
Be the one and only
I said it
I meant it
I never will forget it
Change never happens by itself
It's my time to burn
My time to shine
Time to make it for myself
How long was I buried
Couldn't find me
Laid to rest my heart beats on
Kept track of the symptoms
Could've killed me
But you will see
I'm not broken I could be
Yeah you would be
But my heart is much too strong
Never thought it was easy
But I made me
I made me slowly (made me slowly)
(Chorus)
Don't be sad I know you will
It's just the way it has to be
I can never stay the same (never stay the same)
It's always high or always low
And almost never in between
There's no one left to blame (no one left to blame)
I can't stay I have to change
It's my time to shine
Do it my way
It's my time baby
It's my time to burn
Start a fire
Be the one and only
I said it
I meant it
I never will forget it
Change never happens by itself
It's my time to burn
My time to shine
Time to make it for myself
Make a choice
Shine on, shine on
Do it your way
Shine on, shine on
Make a choice
Shine on, shine on
Do it your way
Shine on
