Shine 
(Like a tidal wave at 5 a.m.) 
You stood right by 
(Like a disaster waiting to begin) 
Her jet black eyes 
(Like a killer’s revolver in the nightime sky) 
You hear her whimper 
(“It’s the synergy between you and I”) 

During her last few hours 
I realized how much I was dying 
She barely had a wick left 
And she kept dripping her wax on my light 

“Veela, please just stay with me one more day 
And have a drink with these [bad word] sidewalks 
(It's like I have night vision even when I don't want to) 
So thank you, girl, for your open ears 
I’m done!” she said and looked up at me 
Her eyes were candy canes 
“I’m just another girl who’s hiding from her fate" 

Shine 
(Like a tidal wave at 5 a.m.) 
You stood right by 
(Like a disaster waiting to begin) 
Her jet black eyes 
(Like a killer’s revolver in the nightime sky) 
You hear her whimper 
(“It’s the synergy between you and I”) 

Shine 
(Like a tidal wave at 5 a.m.) 
You stood right by 
(Like a disaster waiting to begin) 
Her jet black eyes 
(Like a killer’s revolver in the nightime sky) 
You hear her whimper 
(“It’s the synergy between you and I”)
