Hear the Noise
Soman Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

There's no one in town I know
you gave us someplace to go
I never said thank you for that
thought I might get one more chance

what would you think of me now?
so lucky
so strong

so proud
never said thank you for that
now I'll never have a chance

If you were with me tonight
I'd sing to you just one more time
a song for a heart so big god wouldn't let it live

may angels lead you in
hear you me my friends

on sleepless roads the sleepless go
may angels lead you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Soman's song "Hear the Noise" depict a sense of loss and regret. The first stanza talks about a person who gave the singer and their friends a place to go. The person is not in town anymore, and the singer regrets not thanking them for their generosity. The second stanza questions what the person would think of the singer now if they were still around. The singer describes themselves as lucky, strong, and proud, but they still feel guilty for not expressing gratitude towards the person who helped them. The last two lines of the stanza suggest that there is no chance for the singer to express their thanks and make amends.

The chorus of the song carries a message of hope, as the singer hopes that angels lead the person they are addressing in the song. The phrase "hear you me" could be interpreted as a plea for the person to listen to the singer's words, even though they cannot respond. The third stanza reiterates the idea that the person is gone, as the singer suggests that they would sing a song for them "if you were with me tonight." The last line of the stanza is particularly moving, as the singer describes the person's heart as being so big that God would not let it live.

Overall, the lyrics of "Hear the Noise" are deeply emotional and expressive of the pain of loss and regret. The song is an earnest expression of gratitude and a hope for a peaceful afterlife.
