Is anybody listening?

If a song is sung and no one is there to hear the sound, has it really been sung at all?

If love is found, but the only way to have it is to let it go, was is really ever love?

If dreams seek their freedom through the melody of my song, are they coming true, are they real at all?

I could go on living forever, I could free my mind, I could be a better me and discover the secret of happiness, but what does it matter if no one hears when I fall?

Is anybody listening? In the crowded city, do they hear the fighting cry? Is anybody listening?

Words trip over melodies, lives break against the shore, sparks collide creating life
I am falling, I am crying, I am desperate to know

Is anybody listening?

If a heart breaks and there is no one to mend it, was it ever broken at all?

If a sigh escapes from lips caressed with happiness, have they forsaken all?

I would go on living forever, just to free my mind, I want to be a better me and discover the secret of happiness, but what does it matter if no one hears when I fall?

Is anybody listening? In the crowded city, do they hear the fighting cry? Is anybody listening?
Words trip over melodies, lives break against the shore, bodies collide creating life
I am falling, I am crying, I am desperate to know
