I open my mouth and No heads turn What am I to do If I can't be heard Do I level mountains Or raise waves? It's not in my nature It's not my way I can't help my mellowness I can't help my gentle sway I want to be seen Seen as me Seen for what I can't show For what I can't feel Asking for what I don't have? What I can't be I'd rather die Leave me be So I hold it all in The tumult and the fray How could I ask for help When when I open my mouth No heads turn And I'm left echoing into space

I open my mouth and No heads turn What am I to do If I can't be heard Do I level mountains Or raise waves? It's not in my nature It's not my way I can't help my mellowness I can't help my gentle sway I want to be seen Seen as me Seen for what I can't show For what I can't feel Asking for what I don't have? What I can't be I'd rather die Leave me be So I hold it all in The tumult and the fray How could I ask for help When when I open my mouth No heads turn And I'm left echoing into space
I often have an issue with people not hearing me when I talk. My voice is audible, my voice is clear, but for some reason it's as if I didn't speak at all. And so I wonder why that could be.
