When I was lost, I cast a vote in search of anything to cling to
Never really knowing what I was trying to find
But then you were there, and I could see
And I said, why do you shine for me?
You shine against the stars, against the sun
I can see all that you have shown
Against the world that breathes life
You don't believe in love
You don't believe in my heart
Still you shine
I can't believe you're mine
Across the wider space
From half the darkest places
Lingering shades gave way to light
Nothing I had thought
Could make me feel safe here
But you have erased the shadows from my mind
I can't believe you're mine
Still you shine against the stars, against the sun




And shine against the stars, against the sun
I can see all that you have done
Against a world that resists light
You know the day, the night
Illuminate my mind
Still you shine
Like a diamond in the sky
Shine against the stars, against the sun
I can see all that you have done
Against a world that resists light
You know the day, the night
Illuminate my mind
Illuminate my mind
Still you shine
Like a diamond in the sky
When I was lost
You shone, shone to me
Illuminate my mind
