There is a light on and it shines behind my chest
I often feel it but I always do my best
To keep it down
Don't you ever shine too bright now
I throw a coating out on all the words I say
It dims emotion leaving all the meaning grey
There's just sounds
Don't you ever shine too bright now
Take the sparks from your heart
Let 'em burn like a star, in the sky
For everyone to see
Don't be scared of who you are
Let it out of the jar
Pull your heart from your chest and let it breathe
'Cause what we need
Is a couple more hearts out on a couple more sleeves
I wear protection as I insincerely smile
I have a poker face and it comes in every style
It keeps me safe
Don't you ever shine too bright now
I say I love you and I just leave it at that
I could go further but it always fires back
So I stay safe
Don't you ever shine, eh
Take the sparks from your heart
Let 'em burn like a star, in the sky
For everyone to see
Don't be scared of who you are
Let it out of the jar
Pull your heart from your chest
And let it breathe
'Cause what we need
Is a couple more hearts out on a couple more sleeves
We are searching for sincere
We are searching for sincere
We are searching for sincere
We are searching for sincere
Take the sparks from your heart
Let 'em burn like a star, in the sky
For everyone to see
Don't be scared of who you are
Let it out of the jar
Pull your heart from your chest and let it breathe

'Cause what we need
Is a couple more hearts out on a couple more sleeves
