Lyrics
Question me
Expressing a willingness to be questioned
About the things
Referencing inquiries about past actions
I’ve done
Acknowledging personal history or deeds
Can you catch the sounds inside It’s like we’re not alone
Describing an awareness of shared experiences and possible companionship
I’m not sleeping at night I suffer the distance
Highlighting insomnia and emotional pain due to distance
In a kind of dark light
Conveying a sense of ambiguity and difficulty
I’m looking for a chance
Expressing a search for opportunities or favorable circumstances
Do you hear me now
Pleading for attention or acknowledgment
Do you hear me now
Repetition of the plea for assurance of being heard
Take your knives out
Suggesting a defensive stance or a call to action
Or be gone
Offering a choice between engagement or departure
In the silent sound
Describing a quiet or unspoken communication
Do you hear me now
Reiteration of the desire to be heard
Do you hear me now
Repetition for emphasis on the need for acknowledgment
It’s me talking to a friend
Describing a personal conversation with someone who may not meet again
Who won’t see me again
Expressing a sense of emotional detachment or finality
We’re frozen, we’re losing the magic
Depicting a state of being stuck or losing enchantment
Writing songs not to be shared
Highlighting the private nature of creative expression
Will some day make me weak
Suggesting vulnerability arising from sharing personal creations
Hello it’s me again
Introducing oneself again in the conversation
I’m trying to reach out
Expressing an attempt to connect or communicate
So try to listen for once
Encouraging the act of listening for understanding
I’m drowning in the doubts
Conveying a struggle with uncertainty and insecurity
Do you hear me now
Reiterating the plea for recognition
Do you hear me now
Repetition for emphasis on the need to be heard
Take your knives out
Repeating the call to action or readiness to defend
Or be gone
Restating the choice between engagement and departure
In the silent sound
Reiterating the notion of silent communication
Can you hear me now
Posing a question about being heard
Can you hear me now
Repetition of the inquiry regarding acknowledgment
In the dark light
Describing a situation in dim or obscure lighting
Close the door
Suggesting a desire for privacy or seclusion
To splinter the silence
Advocating for breaking the silence and addressing the speaker
And look at me again
Closing with a request to be noticed or acknowledged again
