Can You Hear Me?

[Intro - Ringing distorted guitar notes, echoing melody] [Verse 1] I speak my mind, I tell my truth, But words seem to vanish like a lost balloon, I try to reach out, a hand in the dark, Hoping someone will notice, and leave their mark [Pre-Chorus] Is there anyone listening, can anyone see? This silent plea that's growing, inside of me. [Chorus] Can you hear me? Is my voice too soft? A forgotten soul, my sound is lost, I’m reaching out, c'mon and give me a sign, Trapped in this silent, world of mine. [Interlude] [Verse 2] I see your faces, all around But your eyes just glaze over, without a single sound I try to make sense of this invisible wall That keeps me from connecting, answering freedom's call. [Pre-Chorus] Is there anyone listening, can anyone see? This silent plea that's growing, inside of me. [Chorus] Can you hear me? Is my voice too soft? A forgotten soul, my sound is lost, I’m reaching out, c'mon and give me a sign, Trapped in this silent, world of mine. [Bridge] Maybe I whisper, maybe I’m too shy Maybe I’m not enough, no matter how hard I try But the loneliness lingers, a shadow by my side Yearning for connection, nowhere left to hide. [Instrumental - a simple guitar solo that starts quiet, builds gently, then fades out] [Chorus] Can you hear me? Is my voice too soft? A forgotten soul, my sound is lost, I’m reaching out, c'mon and give me a sign, Trapped in this silent, world of mine. [Refrain] Can you hear me? Is my voice too soft? A forgotten soul, my sound is lost, I’m reaching out, c'mon and give me a sign, Trapped in this silent, world of mine. [Outro] Can you hear me? Can you hear me now? Can you hear me? [Guitar notes fade out slowly with the echoing melody] [End]
