Spotlight (New Regrets)

Every word's a new regret if you say it right, right

Every wound can be forgotten in the right light

Oh nostalgia, I don't need you anymore

'Cause the silent days are over and the beat is at my door

They might try to tell you how you can live your life

But don't, don't forget it's your right

To do whatever you like, you like

'Cause you could be your own spotlight (a-yo, a-yo)

You could be your own spotlight (a-yo, a-yo)

You could be your own spotlight

You could be the star, you can shine so bright (a-yo, a-yo)

You could be your own

'Cause they're gonna tell you all the rules to break

To take away that light from somebody, somebody now (a-yo, a-yo)

You could be your own spotlight (a-yo, a-yo)

You could be your own spotlight

Depression is a little like happy hour, right?

So, it's always gotta be happening somewhere on any (any) given (given) night

Oh nostalgia, I don't need you anymore

I just hope, my perfect stranger, that my kids look more like yours

'Cause they might try to tell you how you can live your life

But don't, don't forget it's your right

To do whatever you like, you like

'Cause you could be your own spotlight (a-yo, a-yo)

You could be your own spotlight (a-yo, a-yo)

You could be your own spotlight

You could be the star, you can shine so bright (a-yo, a-yo)

You could be your own

'Cause they're gonna tell you all the rules to break

To take away that light from somebody, somebody now (a-yo, a-yo)

You could be your own spotlight (a-yo, a-yo)

You could be your own

'Cause I had, a little bit of bad luck

No wonder this crumbling world's stuck

A little sweetness keeps just out of reach

'Cause compassion is something that they just don't, just don't teach, teach

'Cause you could be your own spotlight (a-yo, a-yo)

You could be your own spotlight (a-yo, a-yo)

You could be your own spotlight

You could be the star, you can shine so bright (a-yo, a-yo)

You could be your own

'Cause they're gonna tell you all the rules to break

To take away that light from somebody, somebody now (a-yo, a-yo)

You could be your own spotlight (a-yo, a-yo)

You could be your own spotlight
