Can anybody hear me?

I want someone to hold me
But I'm the only one here
I want someone to listen to me
But I'm the only ear

Can anybody hear me?
Doesn't anybody care?
Does anybody even know
I'm dealing with despair?

There are voices in my mind
Saying I should die
Will anybody even tell me
They're only just a lie?

Does anybody love me?
Would they shed a tear?
Would anybody even care
If I were to disappear?

The ones who preach friendship
Have left me all alone
The ones who are not here
Promised not to let me go

Can anybody see me?
Does anybody care?
Does anybody know
That burden that I bear?

I've built up a wall
To hide who I am
And now that I need help
I'm alone behind it all

Can you see the real me?
Will you even try?
Can you even tell I need
A break in the wall tonight?

I'm crying all alone
Not sure what to do
Please just let me know
That at least I still have you
