Information
Both an electric and acoustic version were recorded. The electric version is officially referred to simply as "Shine" and includes the arpeggios from Bliss and from the chorus of Falling Away With You, whereas the acoustic version is referred to as "Shine Acoustic". The lyrics between the two versions differ very slightly; in the second verse of "Shine", Matt says 'you should have teased', whereas in "Shine Acoustic" he says 'you used to tease'.
Music trivia
Throughout the acoustic version, thunder and rain can be heard. Also, at 0:34 in the acoustic version, Howard can be heard saying 1, 2, 3, 4.
Lyrics
Who cares for the life we've earned Someone's sold all the truth you yearned Remember when we used to shine And had no fear or sense of time When it creeps up on you You can't cry now there's nothing to feel No one's noticed our loneliness Remember when you should have teased And made us scream eternal joy I believed that you'd always be here 'cause once you promised a life with no fear Please don't break my ideals And say whats fake was always real I was the one now I'm gone Take me back again
