Shine Lyrics

...shine

You open your eyes to a sea of green

So you follow the spirits wherever they might lead

But you're lost in the madness with nowhere to go

No, no, no, no

But that Blue King is ruling, his knife at your throat

Oh, oh, oh, oh

But I'm wasting all my time as

Time's racing by and by and

I'm waiting for my light to shine, shine, shine

Shine, shine, shine

You waited so long for some chance at escape

But you've known only silence, that Blue King, how he reigns

Oh, oh, oh, oh

So you whisper your secret out into the wastes

You can only be patient, and our Lady awaits

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

But I'm wasting all my time as

Time's racing by and by and

I'm waiting for my light to shine, shine, shine, oh

Shine, shine, shine

What is this place that we were lost in?

We were caught in the hunting party of our Blue King

They happened upon a sacred white deer

And brought it down with blows from heavy stones

They stripped her down and stole everything she had to give

Just to throw it all away

They danced in her spilled blood

And painted with it on their cheeks and hands

They wore her heart on a chain of barbed wire

And flaunted it in front of her lifeless eyes

They took her hide as a bed for their love

And when our revelry was ended

We took her great horns

And made weapons to slaughter each other with

And all the while the Great Forest wept

So we struck her too

And at last, the Earth was silent

So I'm wasting all my time as

Time's racing by and by and

I'm waiting for my light to shine, shine, shine

Shine, shine, shine
