Hear Me Lyrics - No Place Like Brooklyn - Jeannie Ortega

Looking at the reflections of myself 

Without a mirror, I see someone else 

You're laughing at me 'cause you don't see my soul 

You think the smile I wear says, I'm happy but you don't really know 

Everyday's a fight 

Soon I'll have no tears left here to cry 

Jump to the words I speak 

When will somebody hear me? 

I'm talking, I'm pleading, I need you to understand me 

I'm screaming at the top of my lungs, it's so hard 

(Can't you hear me?) 

Hear my lonely cry 

(I need someone to love me) 

Hear my lonely cry 

Why can't you hear me? 

I'm catching tear drops when I hear the phone ring 

I wanna say so bad what's really wrong, what's hurting me? 

I'm latching out, I'm breaking down feels like my life's crashed 

In around me when I hear in the words I speak, can you help me? 

Everyday's a fight 

Soon I'll have no tears left here to cry 

Jump to the words I speak 

When will somebody hear me? 

(Can you hear me?) 

I'm talking, I'm pleading, I need you to understand me 

I'm screaming at the top of my lungs, it's so hard 

(Can't you hear me?) 

Hear my lonely cry 

(I need someone to love me) 

Hear my lonely cry 

Why can't you hear me? 

Sometimes I wish, I could sleep forever 

'Cause when I sleep my life is so much better 

So busy trying to please, be what you want me to be 

I dream when someone is gonna take care of me 

I'm talking, I'm pleading, I need you to understand me 

I'm screaming at the top of my lungs it's so hard 

(Can't you hear me?) 

(I need someone to love me) 

Why can't you hear me? 

Tell me it's gonna be alright 

Oh, hear my cries, oh, please
