I'll be right beside you, dear
Light up, light up
Why you can't raise your voice to say
In all I've done
We're bound to be afraid
I know we'll make it anywhere
Louder, louder
You've been the only thing that's right
Even if you cannot hear my voice
Even if it's just for a few days
Slower, slower
Why you can't raise your voice to say
Away from here
Even if you cannot hear my voice
And I can barely look at you
All I want is to find an easier way
Makes it so hard not to cry
Light up, light up
And we'll run for our lives
We don't have time for that
And as we say our long goodbyes
Making up for all this mess
As if you have a choice
To get out of our little heads
Louder, louder
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I nearly do
And we'll run for our lives
Have heart, my dear
I'll be right beside you, dear
As if you have a choice
To think I might not see those eyes
I can hardly speak, I understand
As if you have a choice
I can hardly speak, I understand
Light up, light up
But every single time I do
