Why can't you hear me?
I always seem to be screaming your name.
Why can't you hear me?
It always seems to be the same, the same.
I am just speaking to deaf ears.
My problems have no room;
You can't hear them through your own.
And I can't hear anything but you.
Why can't you hear me?
I'm trying so desperately to be heard.
Why can't you hear me?
I'm saying silence, it just seems so absurd.
I try to listen, try to offer advice,
No matter how much that costs me.
How come you always turn me into a joke?
Why can't you take me seriously?
Why can't you hear me?
Am I not crying loud enough?
Why can't you hear me?
I'm sorry if my words are too rough.
It's just so frustrating,
That you aren't listening.
Please just hear me,
I'm begging on my knees.
Why can't you hear me?
