Shine
Promises and Shadows: Unveiling the Meaning Behind 'Shine' by Learning Curve
Lyrics
I'm making promises I'll never keep
I am making commitments or assurances that I won't fulfill.
No wonder why I'm blowing smoke
It's not surprising that I'm deceiving or misleading others.
Foresee the things that always bother me
I anticipate or predict the recurring issues that trouble me.
Now they tell me where to go
Now others are directing or guiding me on where to go.
Somewhere you can't find
A place or state that is inaccessible or hidden.
That's always out of sight
Consistently beyond view or not easily noticeable.
Watch it all collide
Witnessing everything clash or come together.
When it hits the light
When the collision or conflict becomes apparent.
Known you my whole life
I've known you for my entire life.
The apple of my eye
You're the most cherished or favorite person to me.
Property of time
Subject to the passing of time, belonging to its influence.
Diminishing my shine
My radiance or brilliance is diminishing or fading.
I'm hardly new
I'm not entirely new or inexperienced.
In my head I found a melody
I've discovered a tune or rhythm within my thoughts.
The only thing that gets me by
It's the sole thing that helps me cope or endure.
Thinking then it was a remedy
Previously, I believed it was a solution.
Something that I'd sacrifice
Something important that I was willing to give up or relinquish.
Another pale disguise
Another appearance or facade that conceals my true self.
A fragment of my mind
A small part of my thoughts or consciousness.
Careful with my rhyme
Being cautious or particular with my poetry or expression.
And what it may define
Concerned about what my words may signify or represent.
New half compromise
A new agreement involving partial concessions from both sides.
Another starry night
Another night filled with stars or celestial bodies.
Property of time
Subject to the influence of time, diminishing my brilliance.
Diminishing my shine
My shine or radiance is fading due to the passage of time.
Hardly new
I am not completely new or fresh.
I'm making promises I'll never keep
I am repeating the idea of making commitments I won't fulfill.
