They wait to plead their case
Unknown, cast aside
I love to see their face
Can we spare the light?Are we afraid to see
The prisoners of history?
These beautiful minds, trapped inside
Bring them back to lifeLet them shine
Let them shine on
Let them shine
Let them shine onSo dark, but I see sparks
If we don't snuff them out
We gotta let them flame, let them speak their name
Let them reach up to the clouds
Can't eat if we don't feed them
Can't read if we don't teach them
There's no line if we just hide them
Don't just let them dieLet them shine
Let them shine on
Let them shine
Let them shine onLet them shine on
Let them shine on
Let them shine on
Let them shine onStars flicker in the distance
Lonely out in space
They sing out when we're not listening
'Cause we don't see their face
We can let them die, we can make them high
Hold the little miracles that live inside
Let them shineLet them shine
Let them shine on
Let them live
Let them shine onLet them read on
Let them shine on
Let them grow
Let them shine onCome on, let them love
Come on, let them love
Come on, let them loveHold them close, let them know
They'll get through the night
Ordinary people could be a hero
Don't blow out the lightLet them shine
Let them shine on
Let them shine
Let them shine onLet them shine on
