Shine
Andy Stochansky Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
C'mon, c'mon get up out of bed
Today's the day you hold the world
With your song
Go now, go now, go now,
Help escalate
Angels come down
To hear the one
Who's words will ring
C'mon lets shout
And let him be heard
This is the time
This is the day
That we've been waiting for
All the world will stop
To watch you shine
Hey now, hey now, hey now, hey now
Sing your hymn
This is the new national anthem
We will all stand on guard
To let you be heard
Let go, let go, let go
All the cannons
How beautiful this world has become
Now everyone believes
What I believe
That these words should be sung
This is the time
This is the day
That we've been waiting for
All the world will stop
To watch you shine
This is the time
This is the day
That we've been waiting
All the world will stop
To watch you shine
And if you fall
And if you fall
And if you believe in me then
Yes it will come true
This is the time
This is the day
That we've been waiting for
All the world will stop
To watch you shine
This is the time
This is the day
That we've been waiting for
When all the world will stop
To watch you shine
The lyrics to Andy Stochansky's "Shine" is a gentle yet powerful encouragement for someone who might be feeling lost or unsure of themselves. The song is a call to action for the person to get up and seize the day, to hold the world with their song. There is a sense of urgency with the repeated "get up, get up" which creates an optimistic and uplifting mood.
The second verse brings in the idea of angels coming down to escalate, perhaps to give a celestial push to the person so that they can be heard. The words that the person sings will ring and this is a call to shout and let everyone hear. Here, there is a feeling of solidarity as the song encourages others to lift the person up and help them be heard, to create a new national anthem.
The final verse speaks of hope and belief, that if the person falls, they can always rely on someone who believes in them to help them back up. The entire song is about the forward movement, of not giving up and of trying to make a difference in the world. The song ends with the repetition of the idea that this is the time, this is the day that has been long-awaited for everything to come to fruition.
