Shine A Light

My favorite Daniel Johnston song was recorded on a tape deck before you were born

There's a lyric in the chorus where he talks about joy and it held my hand through an infinite void

There was a girl in Ohio and my feelings were pure- still I finally got kicked off of that tour

Cause my heart has a habit and sometimes it shows

Saint Paul made a girl into an English rose

Shine a Light on Me…

They Laughed and threw some rotten apples but I wasn't on the stage that night

I was in the fourth grade with a boom box symphony and 808 bass hits hidden in a microchip

The record company pushed for a hard hard sell but I couldn't check out of the roach motel

Cause my heart has a habit and sometimes it shows

Saint Paul made a girl into an English rose

Shine a Light on me
