Come See About Me
Seeking Solace: A Cry for Connection in Conway Twitty's Melody
Lyrics
Somebody listen, I'm a voice in the distance cryin'
Expressing a plea for attention, feeling isolated
Come see about me
Requesting someone to come and check on them
I am a stranger in a world filled with anger
Feeling like an outsider in a hostile environment
Come see about me
Asking for assistance or support in this situation
I'm gettin' weary tryin' to carry this load all by myself
Struggling alone with a heavy burden
I'm bone tired and fallin', can't you hear me callin'
Tired and reaching out desperately for help
I need somebody's help
Expressing a need for someone to assist
I am a young man growin' wild across this land
Describing oneself as a free-spirited individual
Come see about me
Calling for someone to check in or care
I'm fourscore and twenty and I ain't got anybody
Feeling abandoned or alone at an older age
Come see about me
Seeking attention or companionship
I'm somebody's children alone and forsaken, a wave
Expressing a sense of being neglected and lost
That's lost at sea
Metaphorically adrift and seeking direction
I'm right here behind you, I'm all around you,
Being close and present, yet unnoticed
So slow down
Requesting the recipient to pay attention
Turn around and you will see
Encouraging the person to look around and see
I'm your mother, your sister and your brother
Symbolizing various roles one can play in relationships
Come see about me
Calling for attention and care in familial roles
I am a baby, my mother ain't no lady
Describing vulnerability as a child with a troubled mother
Come see about me
Seeking reassurance and support
I am your maker, the giver and the taker
Signifying a higher power, creator, and controller
Come see about me
Asking for acknowledgment and intervention
