"**Disappear**" is the ninth song in Act One of *Dear Evan Hansen*.

## Lyrics

**[CONNOR MURPHY]**

Guys like you and me

We're just the losers

Who keep waiting to be seen, right?

I mean no one seems to care

Or stops to notice that we're there

So we get lost in the in-between

But

If you can somehow keep them thinking of me

And make me more than an abandoned memory

Well that means we matter too

It means someone will see that you are there

No one deserves to be forgotten

No one deserves to fade away

No one should come and go

And have no one know he was ever even here

No one deserves to disappear

To disappear

Disappear

**[EVAN HANSEN]**

*It's true.​*

**[CONNOR]**

Even if you've always been that

Barely-in-the-background kind of guy

**[EVAN & CONNOR]**

You still matter

**[CONNOR]**

And even if you're somebody who can't escape the feeling

That the world's passed you by

[EVAN]

You still matter

**[CONNOR]**

Think of the people who need to know

**[EVAN]**

They need to know

**[EVAN & CONNOR]**

That no one deserves to be forgotten

**[EVAN]**

No one deserves to be forgotten

**[EVAN & CONNOR]**

No one deserves to fade away

**[EVAN]**

To fade away

**[EVAN & CONNOR]**

No one should flicker out or have any doubt

That it matters that they are here

**[EVAN]**

No one deserves

**[CONNOR]**

No one deserves

**[EVAN & CONNOR]**

To disappear

To disappear

Disappear

**[CONNOR]**

When you're falling in a forest

And there's nobody around

All you want is for somebody to find you

When you're falling in a forest

And when you hit the ground

All you need is for somebody to find you

**[ALANA & CYNTHIA]**

No one deserves to disappear

**[EVAN]**

No one deserves to disappear

**[EVAN, ALANA, JARED & CYNTHIA]**

No one should flicker out or have any doubt

That it matters that they are here

**[EVAN, ALANA, JARED, & CYNTHIA]**

To disappear
