There is some comfort in obscurity
The less I dare, the less I fear
Who needs more responsibility?
I'll live longer if I never volunteer

But I'm being shadowed by maturity
I can't escape; no way to run
So I surrender to the surety
This is the time I must step into the sun

Put me in the spotlight
Turn up the volume on my microphone
Move me to the front line
Let me have the center stage alone
I'll walk under the pole star
Where the sun stays out all night
In the spotlight

Since I have banished all anxiety
Erased the dread, conquered the doubt
I never cared much for variety
Now that I'm in, you'll never get me out

Put me in the spotlight...
