Why Can't You See Video (MV)

It's like screaming into a void where your voice fades away
Looking for a sign any sign begging to stay
I'm right here can't you see in the shadows barely breathing
Pouring out my heart my soul silently seething
It's like the dog barking howling at the moon
A desperate cry under this haunting monsoon
I'm spelling out my needs my boundaries line by line
It's like speaking in tongues or running out of time
Feeling neglected unworthy like I'm fading to black
You're emotionally attending to them not looking back
How can you not see when someone's suffering
It's like you're everywhere nowhere buffering
Drowning in a sea of faces why can't I be seen
In your world I'm just a shadow never been real
I'm crying trying my voice is breaking
In your universe I'm there but constantly shaking
You're a beacon for others their guiding light
But in my darkest moments I'm alone fighting the night
It makes no sense this selective empathy
Surrounded by love yet none for me ostensibly
I'm the outlier in your world of care and affection
An anomaly craving just a fraction of connection
I'm not asking for the world just a moment a glance
A recognition of my pain a single chance
To be heard to be seen not just another face
In this cruel game of neglect I'm losing my place
In the noise in the silence I'm a contradiction
A story untold riddled with affliction
I'm the howling dog the crying soul in the night
Begging for a sign for a light for what's right
So here I stand my plea in the air
Hoping for a change in this emotional warfare
In this echo chamber my shouts ricochet
Lost in the cacophony day after day
Each tear a testament to the silence we breed
A garden of neglect from the seeds of your deed
You cater to the world a shepherd to the flock
But when I bleed out in silence I go into shock
It's a paradox this neglect an emotional void
Where my cries are silent movies simply ignored and destroyed
I'm the phantom in your feast the ghost at your ball
In your symphony of empathy I don't exist at all
The dog howls to the moon a primal desperate plea
A mirror to my anguish why can't you see
Why can't you see
Why can't you see
Me
