 Struggling with Hello? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!

Yes I stumbled into the night
We're touching but I feel like you're still out of reach
But people hear a buzzing like a bug on a line
I'm feeling like I always see them, but they can't see me

Sentimental feelings
Never get you anywhere
My heart concern is beating
Is there anybody, anybody?

Hello, hello
Is anybody listening?
Let go, it's everyone that's calling me
Oh oh, won't somebody show me that I'm not alone, not alone

Yeah I'm coming through this desert of stone
These faces on the statues that I used to know
Wishing I was more than what my story is told
Or hoping that I'm dreaming in the day and this isn't happening

Gotta keep it altogether
Longing for a hand to hold
Keep clear of the shadows
Is there anybody, anybody?

Hello, hello
Is anybody listening?
Let go, it's everyone that's calling me
Oh oh, won't somebody show me that I'm not alone, not alone

Holding on to the memories of when I, I didn't know
Ignorance isn't wise but it beats being alone

Hello, hello
Is anybody listening?
Let go, it's everyone that's calling me
Oh oh, won't somebody show me that I'm not alone, not alone

Hello, hello
Is anybody listening?
Let go, it's everyone that's calling me
Oh oh, won't somebody show me that I'm not alone, not alone
