Bright Spark

The autumn leaves are a joy to see
But never quite enough for me
Want so much more from my life
Want so much more from my life
A summer’s day of the dreams I made
Is never gonna make the grade
Want so much more from my life
I’m sick and tired of waiting cos

I don’t wanna be another - Don’t wanna be another
I don’t wanna be another - Not just another number
Blind lead the blind bright spark left behind in the dark
I’ll make my mark like a bright spark
I’ll take my fifteen minutes and

Burst into flight in a blaze of sunlight
And all who rejoice sing their hearts out tonight

Give me the platform and I’ll take your hand
I’ll guide you all across the land
Hang on to my every word
Hang on to my every word
Worship the rising of the setting sun
Step aside your time is done
Far and wide I will fly
Spreading this wisdom of mine because

Sing of the entity stood before thee
Of humble beginnings how I came to be

Don’t take this from me
Cos without your fake adoration I’ll never be free

Blind lead the blind
Bright spark left behind in the dark
I’ll make my mark like a bright spark
Make no mistake it’s mine to take
This is my chance my only chance
To share my pearls of wisdom
Don’t cast me out don’t push me back
This is my one and only stab
I’ll make my mark like a bright spark
I’ll take my fifteen minutes and

Burst into flight in a blaze of sunlight
And all who rejoice sing their hearts out tonight
