Can You Hear Me Now 歌詞

O the walls are closin' in I can feel it in my bones Like water risin' up to my chin Another long night to be alone I could go out on the town Talk too much and laugh too loud If I'm already on my way down I might as well just work the crowd Can you hear me now O the stories I could teil Sometimes I really hit my stride We make our own Heaven and our own Heil Tryin' to get across to the other side But everyday ends up the same One step up, two steps back Like some old silent movie frame Zoom in close, then fade to black Can you hear me now How did the load get to be so heavy I used to wear my troubie like a crown A bad flood's poundin' on the levee And l'm gonna need some help To hold my ground But I'm sinkin' like a stone To where in solitude this life I'll spend In the coldest place I've ever known I'm here just waitin' until the end I send up my S.O.S. A message in a bottle set out to sea It just reads "Soul in distress" But nobody ever got back to me Can you hear me now
