Dance the Night Away

A song about hope.

Dance the Night Away

She lies awake; she cannot sleep.
Her life is hard; she feels so weak.
The night is cold; she wants to cry.
She puts a knife against her wrist,
Clenches her hands into a fist.
She cries inside.

She's wishing, she's wanting,
She dances the night away.
Her world is so shaky.
She fights through the pain.
She's hoping, she's dreaming,
That she will find a way through the night
And she cries

Some days she can only crawl.
She feels so helpless and so small.
If you could see behind her eyes...
Hiding her arms when she's at school,
All of her friends can be so cruel.
She wonders why.
She's wishing, she's wanting,
She dances the night away.
Her world is so shaky.
She fights through the pain.
She's hoping, she's dreaming,
That she will find a way through the night
And she cries

Don't leave her here, please hold her hand.
All she wants is someone to understand.

She's wishing, she's wanting,
She dances the night away.
Her world is so shaky.
She fights through the pain.
She's hoping, she's dreaming,
That she will find a way through the night
And she cries

Find hope again, find hope again, find hope again, yeah, yeah
Find hope again, find hope again, find hope again, yeah, yeah, yeah
And she smiles...
