[Verse 1: Evan Blum & Rebecca Peters & both]
I don't wanna be the one who never tried
Sitting 'round as the seconds just pass by
I'm trying to shine, bright for the city lights
Bright for the city lights
I don't wanna be the one who never finds
Finds myself coloring outside the lines
I'm trying to shine, bright for the city lights (shine, shine, shine)
Bright for the city lights (shine, shine, shine)

[Refrain 1: both & Rebecca Peters]
Unfamiliar lonely places, worn out memories of past faces
Crowded rooms have never felt so bare
I am standing up and handing out my heart, it's for the taking
I see your footsteps and I'll meet you there

[Verse 2: Evan Blum & Rebecca Peters & both]
I don't wanna be the one afraid to fight
I'll go down swinging for my life
I'm trying to shine, bright for the city lights (shine, shine, shine)
Bright for the city lights (shine, shine, shine)

[Refrain 2: both & Evan Blum]
Expectations made them broken, promises are left wide open
Saving room for people who believe (people who believe)
Shaking off the dust and breaking ties with lies and recreating
A vision of myself I wanna be (I wanna be)

[Bridge: Rebecca Peters & Evan Blum]
I don't wanna be the one who never tried (wanna be)
I don't wanna be stuck outside the lines (wanna be)
I don't wanna be the one afraid to fight (wanna be)
I here to be the one who's gonna shine

[Outro: both]
Bright for the city lights
