Can You Hear Me?

Can You Hear Me? – About

An emotional, slow-paced song, close to the heart. Written, recorded, and produced by Bashia, her second single, “Can You Hear Me?” is a flow of emotion, following the same indie-emotional style as her first single Butcher, Bashia creates this song to be slow-paced and spacious, accompanied with indie-cinematic strings and lush vocals. With a unique and surprising twist of spoken-word-styled rap followed by a foley beat full of detail/ear candy, which creates an interesting and grand finale for the song.

This song touches on subjects such as doubt, friendship, and fear. A rush of thoughts and questions. Incredible artwork created by Adriel Meka.

Can You Hear Me? Lyrics

Is there anyone out there?

Oh, are you listening?

Could it be, you′re the only one who doesn’t fear me?

Oh I wish I could keep you near me

Is there anyone out there?

Will anybody really care?

If I slip, fall down, then get seated on that same old Broken chair?

Can you hear me?

Can you hear me?

Am I really here? Am I a ghost?

Cause when I′m near, they say I am not that close

Are you there? Are you a ghost?

We see the same nightmare, If we keep our eyes closed

Can you hear me?

Can you hear me?

Oh I always let you down, So why are you still here with me?

Oh, don’t you now see? How cruel I can really be

Can you hear me?

Can you hear me?

I’ve been screaming

Standing there, all alone

Mind full of doubt, hands getting cold

Hoping that they keep out, so you won′t have to unfold, What′s untold. All these thoughts are getting old

And I don’t know if they′ve noticed, but my sight has been, focused on the lowest, hoping I don’t hurt all my closest friends, thinking how it all could end. Thinking if it′s worth it, every moment that I spend. Will I have to pretend?

Oh and I keep, pushing it all away, telling myself it’s better this way, It′ll be okay, Oh I wish you could stay. Fill you up with empty words that I’ll say, Oh leave but please don’t go away.

Can you hear me?

Can you hear me?
