I Hear You

(intro music)

[verse one]:
The lights are flashing
in this no-good town
If nothing happens here
why does bad keep on coming around?
They’re not sorry for the
pain that we’ve faced
But one day
we will fly away

[Chorus]:
I hear you laugh
I hear you cry
I hear your voice
shake in the moment that you tell me goodbye
I won’t let you down
no matter what you’ve seen
I’ll take you in
and we’ll follow our dreams

Another police car pulls up
to another fight
I see your momma hugging you
and you’re hugging back real tight
Why is there so much pain?
We just want to be free.
I can tell when you say my name
That you know you’re safe with me.

I know you’ve got scars
Hell, I’ve got them, too
But I feel pure
standing here, next to you.
I promise I won’t leave you
in your misery.
None of the baggage you have
will ever scare me.

musical break

[When music slows]:
I hear your voice
masked by the screams
I hear your heart beat when
you’re standing next to me


[Chorus] x2
