about

acoustic recording of the song, shine. this is the first release from quijote.

lyrics

shine

i don’t make things any easier, i know.
can’t even say i do the best i can.
and though I’d like to say i try,
i’m afraid it'd be just one more lie.

i’ve given too much of myself to bad years.
my memory is too full of sad times.
but to my aching heart tonight,
i’ll promise to make things right,
and clear some space for joy.

gonna tear myself open and shine
like the last star on the last night
gonna tear myself open and shine
like the last star on the last night
lest it all end in sorrow.

you know i feel too bound inside my own skin.
i want to spread like wildfire.
want to grow a thousand feet tall,
want my feet to leave the ground…
and i want love.

gonna tear myself open and shine
like the last star on the last night
gonna tear myself open and shine
like the last star on the last night
lest it all end in sorrow.
