Cover art for Shine lyrics by Pat Mcgee Band

To me this song reminds me of a friend that died recently. When she passed, of my Christian (Catholic, maybe?) friends told me that in their religion you could tell God that you were not ready to pass, and he would not take your life. The part about choosing ("you chose to shine") tells me that she was ready to spend her eternity elsewhere, and she's looking down on me.

This song always makes me think...
