in ,

Let it Shine

Friend, your kindness will make you suffer

It’s a light that shines bright

Attracting the cold

Attracting the weary

Attracting the bereft of spirit

Attracting the lovers of darkness

They will see it and flock

They will try to take it away from you

They will try to plug into themselves

They will try to cover it

They will try to turn it out

Only you can turn it off

Only you can turn it down

 

Friend , once you have cried

And wrenched over the pain they have caused

Turn it up

Crank it up

It will blind the bound ones

It will free the free ones

It will enlighten the bright ones

They will see you

You will see them

And turn theirs up too

You will create together

 

Friend , they can’t take the torch away

you don’t possess the light

You are the light

Let it shine
