Waving Through A Window (Demo)

[BEN PLATT EVAN HANSEN (COMPANY)]
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.

Give them no reason to stare
No slippin' up if you slip away
So I've got nothin' to share
No, I got nothin' to say..

Step out, step outta the sun
If you keep gettin' burned
Step out, step outta the sun
Because you've learned, because you've learned..

On the outside always lookin' in
Will I ever be more than I've always been?
'Cause I'm tap-tap-tappin' 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-watchin' people pass
*I'm* waving through a window
Ohh
Can anybody see?
Is anybody waving.. back at me?

We start with stars in our eyes
We start believing that we belong
But ev'ry sun doesn't rise
And no one tells you where you went wrong.

Step out, step outta the sun
If you keep gettin' burned
Step out, step outta the sun
Because you've learned, because you've learned.

On the outside always lookin' in
Will I ever be more than I've always been?
'Cause I'm tap-tap-tappin' 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-watchin' people pass
Waving through a window
Ohh
Can anybody see?
Is anybody waving...?

When you're fallin' in a forest
And there's nobody around..
Do you ever really crash
Or even make a sound?

When you're fallin' in a forest
And there's nobody around..
Do you ever really crash
Or even make a sound?

When you're fallin' in a forest
And there's nobody around..
Do you ever really crash
Or even make a sound?

When you're fallin' in a forest (Ah)
And there's nobody around..
Do you ever really crash (Ah)
Or even make a sound?

Did I even make a sound? (Oh, oh)
Did I even make a sound? (Oh, oh)
It's like I never made a sound (Ah)
Will I even make a sound?

On the outside (Oh)
Always lookin' in
Will I ever be more (Oh)
Than I've always been?
'Cause I'm tap-tap-tappin' (Oh)
On the glass
Waving through a window (Oh)
I try to speak (Oh)
But nobody can hear
So I wait around (Oh)
For an answer to appear
While I'm watch-watch- (Oh)
Watchin' people pass
Waving through a window (Oh)
Ohh
Can anybody see?
Is anybody waving...
Back at me?

(Oh-oh-oh-ohh)
Oh-oh-oh-ohh...
