[Verse 1]

Hey it's me

I really hope you get this

'Cause lately I've been doing all I can to send the message

Reaching for a hand from anyone who might present it

Asking if they can advise me on how I can find an exit

'Cause it's been getting dark in here

And I don't want to live in fear

So hey it's me

I really hope you get this

And call me back as soon as you can

My mind is restless


[Pre-Chorus]

And it takes everything I have just to pick up the phone

I guess therе's no upper hand between burden or alonе

See I really never wanna be a buzzkill

But please someone pick up still


[Chorus]

Is anyone out there?

Seems like all of my screams are getting no replies

Doesn't anybody care?

That I'm bleeding out but they all pass me by

Falling down

No one's around

Funny how that's what we call declined

Is anyone out there?

Or will it always just be me on the line?


[Verse 2]

Hey it's m

I hate to be a bother

But if I don't get this off my chest I'm sure to be a goner

'Cause it hurts so bad

To not see the light

Try to understand

I'm fighting for my life

I just wanna live without feeling this way

And talking to you is an escape


[Pre-Chorus]

And it takes everything I have just to pick up the phone

I guess there's no upper hand between burden or alone

See I really never wanna be a buzzkill

But please someone pick up still


[Chorus]

Is anyone out there?

Seems like all of my screams are getting no replies

Doesn't anybody care?

That I'm bleeding out but they all pass me by

Falling down

No one's around

Funny how that's what we call declined

Is anyone out there?

Or will it always just be me on the line?


[Bridge]

I could put ten digits in my phone and hope

That you'll pickup and be there when I'm all alone

I could put ten digits in my phone and hope

That you'll pickup and be there when I'm all alone

I could put ten digits in my phone and hope

That you'll pickup and be there when I'm all alone

I could put ten digits in my phone and hope

That you won't send me straight to the tone


[Chorus]

Is anyone out there?

Seems like all of my screams are getting no replies

Doesn't anybody care?

That I'm bleeding out but they all pass me by

Falling down

No one's around

Funny how that's what we call declined

Is anyone out there?

Or will it always just be me on the line?
