[Verse 1]
Maybe soon he'll change his mind
All he needs is space and time but
All my life I seem to be waiting
Is it me or what I say?
Thought of ways to try to change, but
All my life I seem to be chasing

[Pre-Chorus]
He just cuts off the ones who care
Swaps a dream for a nightmare
What would have happened if he wasn’t so scared, so scared?
Couldn't pick up the telephone
And I felt so low
Still I hoped you'd show

[Chorus]
I shine so bright but you don't see me glisten
(Don't wanna hear it, don't wanna see it)
I called your name but you don't seem to listen
(If you don't wanna hear it, I'll leave it)
I shine so bright but you don't see me glisten
(Don't wanna hear it, don't wanna see it)
At night I call your name but you won't listen
(If you don't wanna hear it, I'll leave it)
[Verse 2]
I got some issues with my trust
Red alert when I feel lust, I'm
Overthinking, he got me questioning
Uh, it never seems to work
When I expect the worst
What's he teaching?
No responsibility

[Pre-Chorus]
He just cut off the ones who care
Swapped a dream for a nightmare
Oh, what would have happened if he stopped and faced his fears?
But he wouldn't pick up the telephone
Now I'm sitting here on my own
Boy, still hoping that you'd show

[Chorus]
I shine so bright but you don't see me glisten
(Don't wanna hear it, don't wanna see it)
I called your name but you don't seem to listen
(If you don't wanna hear it, I'll leave it)
I shine so bright but you don't see me glisten
(Don't wanna hear it, don't wanna see it)
At night I call your name but you won't listen
(You don't, you don't, I'll leave it)
