What If I Shine

What If I Shine - Ana Swan

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

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

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

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

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

I shine

I spend too much time thinking about

Who I'm supposed to be

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

I shine
