One Song.

If there was one song &only one song that I could choose as my favorite - considering lyrical quality &message, as well as an emotional attachment to it - it would have to be Anna Nalick's amazing song Shine. Not only do the lyrics easily draw you in, but everytime you hear it, you discover a different message. There are so many ways to interpret this in any situation you find yourself in. It has the capability to empower you. This always empowers me. Listen/read for yourself. It's a song everyone should listen to @least once in their lives. (In my opinion, of course.) ♥

Oh, the night makes you a star &it holds you cold in its arms. You're the one to whom nobody verses, I love you. Unless you say it first. So you lie there, holding your breath &it's strange how soon you forget that you're like stars - they only show up when it's dark cause they don't know their worth.

&I think you need to stop following misery's lead. Shine away, shine away, shine away.

Isn't it time you got over how fragile you are? We're all waiting on your supernova cause that's who you are &you've only begun to shine.

There are times when the poets and porn stars align &you won't know who to believe in. Well that's a good time to be leaving. &The past, it knocks on your door &throws stones at your window @4 in the morning. Well maybe he thinks it's romantic. He's crazy, but you knew that before.

&I think you need to stop following misery's lead. Shine away, shine away, shine away.

Isn't it time you got over how fragile you are? We're all waiting on your supernova cause that's who you are &you've only begun to shine.

Yeah, you've only begun to shine.
