[Silence]
[Instrumental Intro: Piano, Deep Sub-Bass Synth, Acoustic Guitar, Organ, Saxophone, Drums, Electric Guitar, Percussion]
[Intro]
Can you hear me?
(Can you hear?)
I’m talking louder
(But nobody’s near)
I sent the message
(I made it clear)
But somehow the meaning
(Just disappeared)
[Verse 1]
The warning came early
(It came again)
A whisper in the hallway
(A shout in the wind)
I tried to explain it
(I tried to be heard)
But silence answered
(Before a single word)
Some wanted comfort
(Some wanted proof)
Some closed the window
(To keep out the truth)
And when the voice grew louder
(What did they do?)
They turned away
(Well… will you, too?)
[Refrain]
The yell fell
(On deaf ears)
Wanting cheers
(Getting jeers)
[Verse 2]
A message isn’t magic
(And truth ain’t always sweet)
Sometimes what you need to hear
(Is what you least want to meet)
The louder that I shouted
(The harder they resisted)
The more they called it nonsense
(The more the point was missed)
[Refrain]
The yell fell
(On deaf ears)
Wanting cheers
(Getting jeers)
[Bridge]
Hear me!
(Clearly)
Don’t smear me!
(Or cheer me!)
Just listen…
(Ask why!)
You have failed…
(To even try)
[Break]
The yell fell!
(On deaf ears!)
Wanting cheers!
(Getting jeers!)
But if nobody listens…
(What happens next?)
If nobody asks…
(What’s left?)
[Instrumental]
[Electric guitar]
[Saxophone]
[Drums build]
[Deep bass]
[Final Refrain]
The yell fell
(On deaf ears)
Wanting cheers
(Getting jeers)
The yell fell…
(But the message remains)
Wanting cheers…
(Hoping for gains)
[Outro]
Scream:
(The dream!)
Open ears
(Calming fears)
Scream:
(The scene!)
Dream it green
