i'll sing it one last time for you
then we really have to go
you've been the only thing that's right
in all i've done
and i can barely look at you
but every single time i do
i know we'll make it anywhere
anywhere from here

light up, light up
as if you have a choice
even if you cannot hear my voice
i'll be right beside you dear

louder, louder
and we'll run for our lives
i can hardly speak i understand
why you can't raise your voice to say

to think i might not see those eyes
it makes it so hard not to cry
and as we say our long goodbye
i nearly do

light up, light up
as if you have a choice
even if you cannot hear my voice
i'll be right beside you dear

louder, louder
and we'll run for our lives
i can hardly speak i understand
why you can't raise your voice to say

slower, slower
we don't have time for that
all i want is to find an easier way
to get out of our little head

have heart my dear
we're bound to be afraid
even if it's just for a few days
making up for all this mess

light up, light up
as if you have a choice
even if you cannot hear my voice
