Sing It!

Do you ever feel like a plastic bag

Drifting through the wind,
wanting to start again?
Do you ever feel, feel so paper
thin
Like a house of cards, one blow
from cavin' in?
Do you ever feel already buried
deep?
Six feet under screams, but no
one seems to hear a thing
Do you know that there's still a
chance for you?
'Cause there's a spark in you
You just gotta ignite the light
And let it shine
Just own the night
Like the Fourth of July
 'Cause baby, you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're
worth
Make 'em go, "Oh, oh, oh"
As you shoot across the sky
 Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colors burst
Make 'em go, "Oh, oh, oh"
You're gonna leave 'em all in
awe, awe, awe
You don't have to feel like a waste
of space
You're original, cannot be
replaced
If you only knew what the future
holds
After a hurricane comes a
rainbow
 Maybe a reason why all the
doors are closed
So you could open one that leads
you to the perfect road
Like a lightning bolt, your heart
will glow
And when it's time, you'll know
You just gotta ignite the light
And let it shine
Just own the night
Like the Fourth of July
 'Cause baby, you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're
worth
Make 'em go, "Oh, oh, oh"
As you shoot across the sky
 Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colors burst
Make 'em go, "Oh, oh, oh"
You're gonna leave 'em all in
awe, awe, awe
 Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon,
moon, moon
It's always been inside of you,
you, you
And now it's time to let it
through
