Am                             C          Em
Hey, can You hear Me?  Are You really out there?
        Am                          C
Oh I am trapped in the cages of the scars I must
Em
bear.
            Dm       
And I can't tell and I can't think
        Am                  E
I can't even repeat what it is.


Am                             C         Em
Hey, can You see Me? See these hollowing eyes?
                Am                         C
Don't You think something is missing in my calm
         Em
peaceful smile?
            Dm    
But I can't tell and I can't speak
        Am                  E
I can't even repeat what it is.


CHORUS: 
             A                  C           G
     Can You hear Me?  Hear the sound of my pain?
             A                  C             G
     Can You hear Me?  Hear the words I don't say?


Am                                 C  
Hey,what's your problem? Can't you hear what I 
Em
said?
          Am                           C
I am here drowning in sorrow while you sleep on 
     Em
your beds.
            Dm               
And I can't tell and I can't speak.
        Am                  E
I can't even repeat what it is.

(CHORUS)

Bridge: Dm                    C
        I get down on My knees and I cry to You,
            Dm       
        "Oh LORD give Me all Your strength
       C
        Help Me make it through.
       G                    A
        I reach out to You".


Am                               C            Em
"Hey, can You hear Me?", Someone whispered to Me.
        Am                              C
"I understand all Your hurting. How You ache, how 
    Em              Dm                           
You bleed.  But the scars that You bear will one
Am                       (no chord)
day make the whole world free...
   E (come in hard)G           D    
...Satan is a liar down in the mire, but I can
A                    C             G 
hear You. I hear the sound of Your pain. I can 
A                             C               G
hear You--oh yeah. I hear the words You don't say.
      A                C G         A     C G
I can hear You, hear You.  Can You hear Me?  Can 
    A     C G
You hear Me?".
