Lyrics
Can you hear me now?
I've been calling out
Through the wind and the rain
Though the joy and the pain
Now I'm silent again
Can no longer pretend
Caught inside the storm
As it rages within
Broken hearts bleed forever
But still we live on
Walking through darkness
While chasing the sun
I know that you'll still be here when I'm gone
And I know you'll find your way
At the end of the road
Can you hear me now?
Have I been too loud?
With the thoughts in my head
All the words left unsaid
Now I’m calling again
Will you pick up the phone?
Would you listen to me?
Are you still there at all?
Bitter lives remain broken
But the pieces are strong
Let’s attempt to build again
And weather the storm
I know that things were better once before
And I hope you find your way
That’s all that I know
I will help you belong
Find your way through the dark
At the end of it all
Find a new place to start
That’s all that I know
Can you hear me now?
I’ve been calling out
Waiting for you to let go
Are you living in doubt?
Are you going without?
Losing your life as you search for your soul
Do you suffer the same?
Do you fight through the pain?
Waiting for silence to carry your voice
Are you caught in the storm?
Can you find your way home?
Waiting for you to forgive what you cannot control
Can you hear me now?
