Teddy Thompson
"Shine So Bright"


I wanna be a huge star
That hangs out in hotel bars
I wanna wake up at noon
In somebody else’s room

I wanna shine so bright it hurts

I wanna be death bed thin
Never realize the state I’m in
With my head in the clouds
And be followed around by crowds

I wanna shine so bright it hurts
I wanna be high strung
Make people wonder what they’ve done
No one will talk back
Cause you’ll never know
When it might snap

I wanna shine so bright it hurts
I wanna shine so bright it hurts
I wanna shine so bright it hurts
