Light Bulb

Like a light bulb I sit wondering. When will I shine?

When will you see this light that's been trapped inside?

There's a song that I sing, a melodic step.

A ryhthmic groove, a feeling I get.

See I just need a kick, a switch, a breaker.

Something to get me going,

I'm an illuminator. I'm here to bring light.

But I stay here hidden beneath my fright.

I close my eyes and see extraordinary.

I open my eyes and I'm trapped in the dark.

Who holds the key?

Who's got the switch?

Who can free me?

Who can free me?

WHO CAN FREE ME?

Me.
