DEH watching Dear Evan Hansen

Waving through a window

THIS MADE ME CRY WHEN I FIRST SAW IT

I've learned to slam on the brake
Before I even turn the key
Before I make the mistake
Before I lead with the worst of me

THIS SONG HITS YOU IN THE HEART. Someone yelled (that person was me)

Give them no reason to stare
No slipping up if you slip away
So I got nothing to share
No, I got nothing to say
Step out, step out of the sun
If you keep getting burned
Step out, step out of the sun
Because you've learned, because you've learned

This song say that you have no friends? Evan nods and hugs his knees and covers his ears. He hates his voice and he hates that people are listening or too close.

On the outside, always looking in
Will I ever be more than I've always been?
'Cause I'm tap, tap, tapping on the glass
I'm waving through a window
I try to speak, but nobody can hear
So I wait around for an answer to appear
While I'm watch, watch, watching people pass
I'm waving through a window, oh
Can anybody see, is anybody waving back at me?

The kids feel bad. They never even knew this kid existed and it hurt them more

We start with stars in our eyes
We start believing that we belong
But every sun doesn't rise

Did you believe once? Connor asked. Evan nods again

And no one tells you where you went wrong
Step out, step out of the sun
If you keep getting burned
Step out, step out of the sun
Because you've learned, because you've learned
On the outside, always looking in
Will I ever be more than I've always been?
'Cause I'm tap, tap, tapping on the glass
Waving through a window
I try to speak, but nobody can hear
So I wait around for an answer to appear
While I'm watch, watch, watching people pass
Waving through a window, oh
Can anybody see, is anybody waving?

The repetition shows that no one listens. Evan wanted to be heard for once

When you're falling in a forest and there's nobody around
Do you ever really crash, or even make a sound?

The girls all start to tear up. Some guys too. The people look up at his arm and back at the screen they hang their heads in shame

When you're falling in a forest and there's nobody around
Do you ever really crash, or even make a sound?
When you're falling in a forest and there's nobody around
Do you ever really crash, or even make a sound?
When you're falling in a forest and there's nobody around
Do you ever really crash, or even make a sound?
Did I even make a sound?

Tears spill more and more as Heidi is balling. Everyone looks at Evan who is trying to pretend this isn't happening and having a panic attack. The audience looks between the screen and Evan as he cries

Did I even make a sound?
It's like I never made a sound
Will I ever make a sound?

You did. I promise you that. Jared said that. JARED. WHAT.

On the outside, always looking in

It's stronger. Unlike me.

Will I ever be more than I've always been?
'Cause I'm tap, tap, tapping on the glass
Waving through a window
I try to speak, but nobody can hear
So I wait around for an answer to appear
While I'm watch, watch, watching people pass
Waving through a window, oh
Can anybody see, is anybody waving back at me? (oh)
Is anybody waving?
Waving, waving, whoa-oh, whoa-oh

DAMN HANSEN YOU GOT VOCAL CHORDS

Evan had no where to hide and was crying. He wasn't proud of anything. He just listened to himself and everyone else saw that he was a mess

He couldn't stop
