Stand In The Spotlight Lyrics
They can't see your heart
They don't care to see who you are
They're just a pack of wolves
Don't let them break you down
Don't let them break you down
You are the starlight
That sparks up the whole night
Just let their voices fade out
And stand in the spotlight
Take a bow
Everybody's lost
Most people think they're not
But I'm not losing you now
I don't think I can at all
Don't let them break you down
You are the starlight
That sparks up the whole night
Just let their voices fade out
And stand in the spotlight
Take a bow
Please don't run away from me
I don't want to find you lost in their eyes
Please don't make a fool of me
Cause I don't want to find you lost and alone
One day they'll see
One day they'll all see
One day they'll be shouting the truth
One day (one day)
They'll all be cheering for you
They'll all be cheering for you
They'll all be cheering for you
They'll all be cheering for you
You are the starlight
That sparks up the whole night
Just let their voices fade out
And stand in the spotlight
Take a bow
They don't care to see who you are
They're just a pack of wolves
Don't let them break you down
Don't let them break you down
That sparks up the whole night
Just let their voices fade out
And stand in the spotlight
Take a bow
Most people think they're not
But I'm not losing you now
I don't think I can at all
Don't let them break you down
That sparks up the whole night
Just let their voices fade out
And stand in the spotlight
Take a bow
I don't want to find you lost in their eyes
Please don't make a fool of me
Cause I don't want to find you lost and alone
One day they'll all see
One day they'll be shouting the truth
One day (one day)
They'll all be cheering for you
They'll all be cheering for you
They'll all be cheering for you
They'll all be cheering for you
That sparks up the whole night
Just let their voices fade out
And stand in the spotlight
Take a bow

this song is about being different about not just going along with the crowd and about knowing your real friends the ones that care and not falling for the pack of wolves that will just use you they dont bother to see who you really are and theyll just break you down its about shining and rising from the lies and being who you are and that you should be proud of standing in the spotlight or standing out of the very good song imo
you explained that song perfectly!!
I always imagined this song about a girl, who's really pretty, and everybody wants her, but won't show her true self... "They can't see your heart They don't care to see who you are They're just a pack of wolves Don't let them break you down Don't let them break you down"
And he compares the guys to a pack of wolves, because she's really pretty, and they all 'fight' over her, just to get in her pants. And when they succeed, they break up with her, and break her down some more.
"You are the starlight That sparks up the whole night Just let their voices fade out And stand in the spotlight Take a bow" I thought that he was talking about how her beauty could be "blinding", but the good blinding, because of the starlight part. And the rest is about her showing her true self, and not letting herself be affected by the guys who just want her for her looks. ("Just let their voices fade out")
"Everybody's lost Most people think they're not But I'm not losing you now I don't think I can at all" He's saying that a lot of people don't see that people are being hurt by guys trying to get to them for sex, and end up getting lost. Then, he says that he's not losing her now, because, obviously, he's trying not to let her get hurt by them.
"Please don't run away from me I don't want to find you lost in their eyes Please don't make a fool of me Cause I don't want to find you lost and alone"
Here, she's been hurt too much by the guys that she thought loved her, breaking up with her, so she's "running away" from him...as in, being more shy, not showing her true self, etc. And he doesn't want to find her "lost/alone", because that would mean that she got hurt again by a guy, and he doesn't want that to happen to her.
"One day they'll see One day they'll all see One day they'll be shouting the truth One day (one day) They'll all be cheering for you"
He's saying that one day, they'll see that they were idiots for doing this to her, and one day she'll look back on this, when she's older, and learn her less and grow/become a better person, and they'll be "cheering her on", because they helped her achieve this in the end.
Well, that's just what I got from this song...It's probably much different from other's POVs, but oh well.
i think it is simply just about a girl who is bullied or teased for being different but he thinks shes so much more and a really special girl has a high school ring to it
