I can't hear you now

[Intro – soft warbling synth hum, distant room tone] (Instrumental Solo) [Verse 1 – gentle guitar arpeggios, faint snare tap] The screen’s gone gray, the line went dead Your voice dissolved into the static I’m counting cracks in the bedroom wall Wondering if you’re even there at all [Pre-Chorus – building bass line, subtle vocal harmonies] The air feels thin, the silence loud I’m screaming into a cloud Every word gets swallowed whole I’m reaching out but I can’t hold [Chorus – full guitar strums, steady drum beat, layered vocals] I can’t hear you now, can’t hear you now The distance turned our words to sound I can’t hear you now, can’t hear you now Just echoes spinning ’round and ’round [Verse 2 – picked guitar melody, soft shaker rhythm] I left a note by the old payphone Hoping the wind would take it home The rain washed out the ink I wrote Another message lost to the cold [Pre-Chorus – swelling synth pads, increased drum intensity] The clock ticks slow, the night drags on I’m staring at a silent phone Every ring feels like a lie I’m waiting for a sign that’s gone by [Chorus – distorted guitar edge, driving drums, soaring harmonies] I can’t hear you now, can’t hear you now The static drowned the words we vowed I can’t hear you now, can’t hear you now Just empty space where you allowed [Interlude – stripped-back guitar solo, reverb-drenched] (Instrumental Solo) [Bridge – minimal piano keys, whispered vocals] I traced your name in the fogged-up glass Watched it fade when the wind passed I know the line’s been cut for good But I still wait like I should [Final Chorus – full band, maximum emotional intensity] I can’t hear you now, can’t hear you now The silence is the only sound I can’t hear you now, can’t hear you now Forever stuck between the now and then somehow [Outro – fading guitar, soft synth fade] The static fades to quiet I’m still here, still trying
