She saved the world tonight.
But she will get no thanks.
Except from me.
She dare not tell them.
But they know. They act blind.
But they live out what she's behind.
And so she sleeps.
And dreams of silence.
Dreams of stares.
And many stairs to climb,
never landing to meet.
...
I will leap to catch you
before you fall, or ever hurt at all.
But what if I can't catch you?
Whatever will I do?
I should die if you should die.
I would give up,
break up and apart.
It would crush my heart
into powder.
Sing a little louder
till the stars can hear you.
Do you think the stars will hear you?
Hear you in the dark?
I know I hear you in the dark,
as you dream. And you dream
of silence, but you scream.
But she will get no thanks.
Except from me.
She dare not tell them.
But they know. They act blind.
But they live out what she's behind.
And so she sleeps.
And dreams of silence.
Dreams of stares.
And many stairs to climb,
never landing to meet.
...
I will leap to catch you
before you fall, or ever hurt at all.
But what if I can't catch you?
Whatever will I do?
I should die if you should die.
I would give up,
break up and apart.

Sing a little louder
till the stars can hear you.
Do you think the stars will hear you?
Hear you in the dark?
I know I hear you in the dark,
as you dream. And you dream
of silence, but you scream.
