Can You Hear Me
[unknown] Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yeah lately there's not much to say
Kinda crazy how we look the other way
Yeah maybe there's a better way
Same channel on a different day

I can't hear you through all this hate
Build a wall up so you can't escape
Yeah maybe now its all for show
Change channels it just comes and it goes
Yeah maybe tell me all your lies
Yeah someday cut you down to size

I can't hear you through all this hate
Build a wall up so you can't escape
Its going down

Now's the time to give it up
Its getting clearer
Its so hard to swallow

I can't hear you through all this hate




Build a wall up so you can't escape
I can't hear you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of [unknown]'s song "Do You Hear What I Hear" seem to convey a feeling of disillusionment and frustration with the state of the world. The opening lines suggest a lack of communication or understanding, where people are choosing to ignore or avoid important issues. The repetition of "Same channel on a different day" implies that despite the passage of time, nothing seems to change or improve, and the problems persist.


The mention of "all this hate" indicates a divisive and polarized environment, where people are unable to listen to each other or find common ground. The line "Build a wall up so you can't escape" could be metaphorical, symbolizing the barriers we construct to protect ourselves emotionally and intellectually. It reflects the idea of shutting oneself off from differing perspectives and avoiding uncomfortable truths.


As the song progresses, there is a suggestion of disillusionment with the superficiality of it all. The lines "Maybe now it's all for show" and "Change channels it just comes and it goes" hint at a sense of emptiness in the face of constant media exposure and the fleeting nature of attention given to important issues. The desire for truth is expressed in the line "Tell me all your lies" and the anticipation of eventual accountability in "Someday cut you down to size."


Overall, the lyrics of "Do You Hear What I Hear" reflect a dissatisfaction with the current state of affairs, urging listeners to pay attention, break down walls of ignorance, and seek genuine connection and understanding.

It walks with me
It takes its time
It sinks its teeth in one at a time
It loves to feed
It loves my past
It's always taunting but somehow out of grasp

Can you hear me? 'Cause I'm lost (I'm lost)
And I may never come back again
And while my heart keeps holding on
I know I'll never be the same again

It talks to me, It holds my hand
It showers me with things I can't understand
It has no reason, It knows the time
It's constantly watching so it's not left behind

Can you hear me? 'Cause I'm lost
And I may never come back again
And while my heart keeps holding on (Holding on)
I know I'll never be the same again

Can you hear me? 'Cause I'm lost
And I may never come back again
And while my heart keeps holding on
I know I'll never be the same again

(You know) You know I'll never be the same again
(You know) You know I'll never be the same again
(You know) You know I'll never be the same again
(You know) You know I'll never be the same again

Can you hear me? 'Cause I'm lost (I'm lost)
And I may never come back again
And while my heart keeps holding on
I know I'll never be the same again

I know I'll never be the same again
I know I'll never be the same again
I know I'll never be the same again
I know I'll never be the same again

It walks with me, it takes its time
It sinks its teeth in one at a time
It loves to feed, it loves my past
It's always taunting but somehow out of grasp
Can you hear me? 'Cause I'm lost
And I may never come back again
And while my heart keeps holding on
I know I'll never be the same again
It talks to me, it holds my hand
It showers me with things I can't understand
It has no reason, it knows no time
It's constantly watching, so it's not left behind
Can you hear me? 'Cause I'm lost
And I may never come back again
And while my heart keeps holding on
I know I'll never be the same again
Can you hear me? 'Cause I'm lost
And I may never come back again
And while my heart keeps holding on
I know I'll never be the same again
You know I'll never be the same again (You know, you know)
You know I'll never be the same again (You know, you know)
You know I'll never be the same again (You know, you know)
You know I'll never be the same again

I know I'll never be the same again
I know I'll never be the same again
I know I'll never be the same again
I know I'll never be the same again

Он ходит со мной
Это требует своего времени
Он вонзает свои зубы по одному за раз
Он любит кормиться
Оно любит мое прошлое
Это всегда насмешливо, но почему-то выходит за рамки понимания

Ты меня слышишь? Потому что я потерян (я потерян)
И я, возможно, никогда больше не вернусь
И пока мое сердце продолжает держаться
Я знаю, что никогда больше не буду прежним

Он разговаривает со мной, Он держит меня за руку
Это осыпает меня вещами, которые я не могу понять
У него нет причин, Он знает время
Он постоянно следит, чтобы его не оставили позади

Ты меня слышишь? Потому что я потерян
И я, возможно, никогда больше не вернусь
И пока мое сердце продолжает держаться (держится)
Я знаю, что никогда больше не буду прежним

Ты меня слышишь? Потому что я потерян
И я, возможно, никогда больше не вернусь
И пока мое сердце продолжает держаться
Я знаю, что никогда больше не буду прежним

(Ты знаешь) Ты знаешь, что я никогда больше не буду прежним
(Ты знаешь) Ты знаешь, что я никогда больше не буду прежним
(Ты знаешь) Ты знаешь, что я никогда больше не буду прежним
(Ты знаешь) Ты знаешь, что я никогда больше не буду прежним

Ты меня слышишь? Потому что я потерян (я потерян)
И я, возможно, никогда больше не вернусь
И пока мое сердце продолжает держаться
Я знаю, что никогда больше не буду прежним

Я знаю, что никогда больше не буду прежним
Я знаю, что никогда больше не буду прежним
Я знаю, что никогда больше не буду прежним
Я знаю, что никогда больше не буду прежним

@NikNocturnal

One of the best tracks on the album!

@ryanweedwacker7905

no way

@heatherbisset9365

Def one of my favorites

@MyWorld-eb9oz

The message is really cool and the riff sounds fun to play, but I think Harder is my favorite. Either way, it's sick to reply to a YouTuber I watch a lot.

@charliedallachie3539

Almost 30 years this band has been producing music, today it’s needed as much as ever

@garcjr

Back in the day I never really got into Korn. I was curious if people would still be wearing their shirts 20-to-30 years from now. Over the years Korn has gotten better with age and I've been hooked since, "Y'all Want a Single."

@frugal4twenty202

Well said

@mkr666god7

Shsme....is a vision...a predicktion

@jessemacneil2723

Hell ya

@jessicalhoffmann4577

You couldn't be more correct. The very last time I was out living my life was at their concert in January 2020 for my 46th birthday. Man, Johnathan sings with his very core and all his person. Real and raw emotions that most bands don't have any idea how to embrace let alone share with others. Korn keeps me in check and still fighting. Thanks for your positive words. Much respect n thanks to you... Jesse
