Message In A Bottle
Kings Of Leon vs. The Police Lyrics

Just a castaway, an island lost at sea, oh
Feeling isolated and abandoned, like a shipwrecked sailor left alone to fend for oneself

Another lonely day, no one here but me, oh
Enduring continuous loneliness and the absence of human company

More loneliness any man could bear
Overwhelmed by a sense of loneliness and emotional distress that is almost unbearable

Rescue me before I fall into despair, oh
Begging for help and support to prevent descending into deep sadness or hopelessness

I'll send an SOS to the world
Seeking help and reaching out to the world through an emergency call for assistance

I hope that someone gets my
Wishing and praying that someone will understand and respond to the distress call

Message in a bottle, yeah
The metaphorical means of sending out the SOS message to the world

A year has passed since I wrote my note
Reflecting on the long passage of time since the SOS message was sent out

I should have known this right from the start
Regretting an earlier mistake or misjudgment that led to the current situation

Only hope can keep me together
Clinging to hope as the only source of strength and resilience to endure the pain and hardship

Love can mend your life but love can break your heart
Confronted with the duality of love as both a source of healing and vulnerability

Walked out this morning, don't believe what I saw
Encountering a shocking and distressing sight that further compounds the sense of isolation and desperation

Hundred billion bottles washed up on the shore
Witnessing the overwhelming magnitude of the crisis, as evidenced by the sheer number of SOS messages sent out

Seems I'm not alone in being alone
Realizing that many others are suffering from the same sense of disconnection and despair

Hundred billion castaways looking for a home
Recognizing the vast numbers of people who are searching for a sense of belonging and purpose

Sendin' out an SOS
Repeating the call for help and refusing to give up hope
