==== LYRICS ====

Light me up
That’s the spot
My time has come
Wait till you see what I’ve got 
I am broken
Yet I glow
In the dark
My beauty shows
Heart made of neon
Neon’s in my veins
Don’t need tricks
Cause I’m a fucking glowstick

Find what you love
Never let it die
Find what you love
Let it make you come alive

Glowstick
