Hear me
Hear me

You gotta be out there
You gotta be somewhere
Wherever you are
I'm waiting
'Cause there are these nights when
I sing myself to sleep
And I'm hopin' my dreams
Bring you close to me
Are you listening?

[Chorus]
Hear me
I'm cryin' out
I'm ready now
Turn my world upside down
Find me
I'm lost inside the crowd
It's getting loud
I need you to see
I'm screaming for you to please
Hear me

Hear me

Hear me
Can you hear me?
Hear me

I used to be scared of
Letting someone in
But it gets so lonely
Being on my own
No one to talk to
And no one to hold me
I'm not always strong
Oh, I need you here
Are you listening?

[Chorus]

I'm restless and wild
I fall, but I try
I need someone to understand
Can you hear me?
I'm lost in my thoughts
And baby I've fought
For all that I've got
Can you hear me?

[Chorus]

Hear me
Hear me
Hear me
Can you hear me?
Hear me
Hear me
Hear me
Can you hear me?
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Hear me
Hear me
Hear me

    General Comment:she just wants to be heard that shes ready for him now. Wondering if he does. I like singing this song, pulls up a lot of emotions, im usually in tears at the end, but I like it.

    General Comment:lmao fyeroledezma. you can't force someone to love you back unless they have the same feelings for you. sooner or later they will get the message or not. if they don't then tell them how you feel without yelling it out and saying love me back as something more.

    General Comment:You know when you like someone and they seem to not get all of the hints?
    yeah, this is what this makes me think of.

    General Comment:I think this song's about finding love...much like what ellebabe said. About looking and not finding love. I'm in that situation right now.

    General Comment:This song reminds me of how I feel sometimes - just like all your problems are overwhelming you and you just need someone to talk to. But no one realizes. And all you want is for someone to 'hear you'.

    General Comment:I think this song is generic and is really about yourself instead of someone in particular. It's just to the world in general.

    General Comment:Correction:

    "...but it gets so lonely
    being on my own
    WITH
    no one to talk to
    and
    no one to hold me...

    ...I'm restless and wild
    I fall but I try
    I need someone to understand
    (can you hear me?)
    I'm lost in my thoughts
    and baby I'VE FOUGHT
    for all that I've got
    Can you hear me?..."

    Anyway, this is one of my favorite songs by Kelly because it's just about wanting to be heard (duhhhhh) and wanting to just be somebody in the world. You just want people to notice you for at least one night, because you're fighting to be you. I say this because this is exactly how I feel. No one really knows the real music-loving me who loves to just rock out and everything, because everybody thinks I'm shy. I have problems being outgoing and desperately want to solve this. I am lost in my thoughts, sometimes, because instead of talking about how i feel i write a song about it. I think I'm going on 10 songs right now that i've written so far.

    "I used to be scared of
    Letting someone in...
    But it gets so lonely being on my own
    And
    No one to talk to
    And
    No one to hold me
    I'm not always strong,
    Oh, I need you here
    Are you listening?"

    I feel like this sometimes, because I am sort of scared of letting someone in, but then I just get so boiled up inside and lonely and all i want to do is pour it all out onto someone, but i never do.
    I'm always lost inside this crowd, because the whole world is a crowd that i'm lost inside, no one noticing me. I just feel like I need someone to reach out and say something. Even listen to me.
    To me this song is the most real song I've ever heard and possibly my favorite. The music is really awesome, too.
