he shines

He wears black nail-polish
But that can't hide his black heart.
He's broken down
Worn out from a tough life.

I know he's going to be someone.
He's got talent
And he shines so bright.
He can't see what I see in him.
He brightens my day.

He's broken with a black heart,
But that's not going to stop him.
He's going to make it out of this small town
That keeps beating him down.
