You've got the words to change a nation
But you're biting your tongue
You've spent a life time stuck in silence
Afraid you'll say something wrong
If no one ever hears it how we gonna learn your song?

We may be silenced by how mute we are, but our words could kill thousands. The pain that we both endured should never be repeated. We're going to spend a lifetime begging to speak. Yet, our hearts plead for us to stay silent, thinking we'll say something wrong. Our heartbeats tap the rhythm to our song, hiding the words from reality.

So come on, come on
Come on, come on

Come on Cass, we can make it through the pain. Our demons will never hurt us again.

You've got a heart as loud as lions
So why let your voice be tamed?
Maybe we're a little different
There's no need to be ashamed
You've got the light to fight the shadows
So stop hiding it away

We may have no voice, yet, we still have warm hearts. Never let anyone tame us, I'll admit, we're different than others but when has that ever stopped us. Don't be ashamed of showing who you are to others. You're the one who keeps all of us sane when we fight. Don't hide it away, Cass.

Come on, come on

Don't be afraid, c'mon! We're almost there, Cass.

I wanna sing, I wanna shout
I wanna scream 'til the words dry out
So put it in all of the papers,
I'm not afraid
They can read all about it
Read all about it, oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh

Kick, scream, shout out. Make your voice be heard to many. Don't let the media drag you down, you're doing good for the world, Cass. Everyone knows you are. Listen to them.

At night we're waking up the neighbours
While we sing away the blues
Making sure that we're remembered, yeah
Cause we all matter too
If the truth has been forbidden
Then we're breaking all the rules

Let your voice be heard, don't let anyone stop you. Never let them stop you. We may be gone but we are remembered dearly. We matter too. The truth may be hidden behind vaults but we're breaking everything.

So come on, come on
Come on, come on,

Cass, you're stronger than anyone I have ever known. Come one! You can do it! Fight it!

Let's get the TV and the radio
To play our tune again
It's 'bout time we got some airplay of our version of events
There's no need to be afraid
I will sing with you my friend

Our song is playing in the background, letting us be heard. It's our time now and no one can stop us. No need to be scared, Cass, I'm with you every step of the way. You're my friend, the only one I care about.

Come on, come on

Cass, I won't make it out in time. You have to keep the rest at bay.

I wanna sing, I wanna shout
I wanna scream 'til the words dry out
So put it in all of the papers,
I'm not afraid
They can read all about it
Read all about it, oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh

I'll keep the demons at bay. Be free from your demons's grasps. Fight for everything and everyone you know.

Yeah, we're all wonderful, wonderful people
So when did we all get so fearful?
Now we're finally finding our voices
So take a chance, come help me sing this
Yeah, we're all wonderful, wonderful people
So when did we all get so fearful?
And now we're finally finding our voices
Just take a chance, come help me sing this

We may be on our own but we're stronger together. Our time was short but you can get it back. Be free from this trap and live life. Live life with the wonderful people who are your family. You've earned your voice of freedom. Take the chance and escape your demons. Lose your fears and take the chance to enjoy life.

I wanna sing, I wanna shout
I wanna scream 'til the words dry out
So put it in all of the papers,
I'm not afraid
They can read all about it
Read all about it, oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh

I'm sorry I couldn't make it, Cass. You're stronger than I am. Be strong, keep the family together and sane. Know that I will always love you no matter what life throws at you, I'll defend you. I was too slow. I couldn't escape.

I wanna sing, I wanna shout
I wanna scream 'til the words dry out
So put it in all of the papers,
I'm not afraid
They can read all about it
Read all about it, oh

For I may now rest in peace, to watch over you, Cass. I am your Angel and you are my light.

I'm sorry that this is quite sad. I was almost crying myself but I had the idea for this. The requester didn't give me a scenario so I used this. Hope you enjoyed. Also, yes, it does have a double meaning.
