Hear Me
Adina Thembi Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All the hurt and pain
I hear myself screaming out
And I'm sitting here wondering why
It's all in vain, if no one can hear me now
Walls are closing in, nowhere to hide

Why is the silence so loud?
I can feel myself fade away
Is there any way out?
Ah

Can you hear me?
Is anybody listening?
Can you hear me?
The voice in me is missing
I need you now
I'm screaming out
I need a helping hand somehow
I'm not asking for much
I just need somebody to hear me now

I can't breath
This pain is choking me
Ah-ah-ha-ha
Turn on the light, there's a darkness within
Ah-ah-ah-ah
This broken bird just wants to fly again
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Changed and found, just wants to be free

Why is the silence so loud?
I can feel myself fade away
Is there any way out?
Ah

Can you hear me?
Is anybody listening?
Can you hear me?
The voice in me is missing
I need you now
I'm screaming out
I need a helping hand somehow
I'm not asking for much
I just need somebody to hear me now




To hear me now
Hmm

Overall Meaning

The songwriter emphasizes the need for someone to hear her cry for help, for someone to turn on the light in her life, and to help her break free from her pain. The repeated phrase, "Can you hear me?" throughout the song emphasizes the singer's longing for someone to hear her voice and come to her aid. The lyrics suggest that the singer needs more than just someone to hear her - she needs a helping hand, someone to pull her out of her despair.
