Hear Me Out

Verse 1: I gave you my words, spilled my secrets at your feet, Hoping you’d see me, beyond the retreat. I reached out my hands, where shadows play, Wishing you’d hold them, chase the chill away. [break] Pre-Chorus: All I needed was a glimpse of your light, To guide me through, to fight the night. But when I called, the echoes came back empty, In the silence, lost the key. Chorus: Hear me out, just once more, I’m standing here, my heart’s sore. I just needed you to listen, not to cure, Hear me out, even if I’m unsure. [break] Verse 2: I told you my fears, laid them bare, Hoping you’d stay, show me you care. But my voice seemed too much, in the quiet space, And I saw the distance, in your face. Pre-Chorus: All I wanted was to not feel so small, Your presence a comfort, through it all. But my words fell hard, on the cold ground, Where once was love, now not found. Chorus: Hear me out, just once more, I’m standing here, my heart’s sore. I just needed you to listen, not to cure, Hear me out, even if I’m unsure. Bridge: [whisperl]Maybe too fast, maybe too deep, My soul to keep, too steep. All those moments, just slipped away, And now I’m just begging you to stay. Verse 3: If we could rewind, what would I say? Would the words be softer, would you stay? I’m still here, calling into the night, Looking for a sign, for some light. Chorus: Hear me out, just once more, I’m standing here, my heart’s sore. I just needed you to listen, not to cure, [break] Hear me out, even if I’m unsure. Outro: Just hear me out, that’s all I ask, Underneath, it’s not a mask. Just me, raw and true, All I wanted was to talk to you.[Guitar fades out, leaving a lingering sense of hope and melancholy]
