They wait to plead their case, unknown cast aside
. . .
I love to see their face, can we spare the lie?
. . .
Are we afraid to see them, prisoners of history
. . /
These beautiful minds, trapped inside, bring them back to life
. .
Let em shine, let em shine on
. .
Let em shine, let em shine on
.
Ooooooohhhhhhhhhh
.
Aowwwww
So dark when I see sparks, if we don t snuff em out
We ve gotta let em flame, let em speak their name
Let em reach up to the clouds
Can t eat if we don t feed em, can t read if we don t teach em
There s no light if we just hide em
Don t just let em die
Let em shine (yeah yeah yeah) let em shine on
Let em shine (yeah yeah yeah) let em shine on
Oh let em shine on (yeah yeah yeah) let em shine on
Let em shine on (yeah yeah yeah) let em shine, on
.
Ohhhhh sparks flicker, in the distance
/.
Lonely out in space
.
They sing out, but we re not listening
/.
Cause we don t see their face
.
We can t let em die we can t, make em hide
/.
All the little miracles that live inside
Let em shine, ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh
. .
Let em shine (yeah yeah yeah) let em shine on
