Read the lyrics to Natália Kelly’s ESC 2013 song “Shine”. She’ll represent Austria in the first semi-final on May 14. Does her song shine? Or does it just burn out? Let us know in the comments section below!

When hurt is all you’re feeling, your heart is slowly bleeding
The only memories to hold on to
When you almost stop believing, you’re cold, alone and freezing
You think you’re lost and don’t know where to go
Look up to the starlit sky, reignite the fire

You will shine, shine and fight the shadows in the sky
You will shine, I see the light in your eyes
You will shine, shine and fight the shadows in the sky
Oh you will fly up high, the light is in your eyes
Trust me, you will shine

Time is always healing and answers are revealing
Sometimes they’re simply right before your eyes
But when you’re down here kneeling there is no chance to see it
You can when all these dark clouds disappear
Look up to the starlit sky, reignite the fire

You will shine, shine and fight the shadows in the sky
You will shine, I see the light in your eyes
You will shine, shine and fight the shadows in the sky
Oh you will fly up high, the light is in your eyes
Trust me, you will shine

Still alive and breathing
Still alive and breathing
Still alive and breathing, still alive and breathing
Still alive and breathing

You will shine, shine and fight the shadows in the sky
You will shine, I see the light in your eyes
You will shine, shine and fight the shadows in the sky
Oh you will fly up high, the light is in your eyes

Oh you will fly up high, the light is in your eyes
Trust me, you will shine

The live performance is well worth seeing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KCIcr_v37Hc
I found it even more compelling than the official promo video.

I also sense a potential deathmatch with Emmelie de Forest … or is that too much of a stretch?
