Can You Hear Me

(album: Songs I Wrote In My Bedroom - 2020)

I've been chasing the pavement
I've been sleeping with strangers
Dealing in danger
Passing by faces so cold

I've been running to places
I've been broken and nameless
Hopeless and shamed
I've never been so low

Zoom out to everything
Zoom into me
Zoom out to tragedy
Zoom into me

Can you hear me out there
Can you help me I'm scared
Can you lift me, can you give me
A sign
Can you beat back the night
Can you make things alright
Can you hold me, can you show me
The light

All alone in the basement
Where it's always the same and
Nothing can change and no one can see
Me cry

I don't know how to face it
I don't know how to name it, know who to blame but
Nothing seems alright

Zoom out to everything
Zoom into me
Zoom out to tragedy
Zoom in to me

Can you hear me out there
Can you help me I'm scared
Can you lift me, can you give me
A sign
Can you beat back the night
Can you make things alright
Can you hold me, can you show me
The light

Can you hear me out there
Can you help me I'm scared
Can you lift me, can you give me
A sign
Can you beat back the night
Can you make things alright
Can you hold me, can you show me
The light
