The Sound You Hear - The Wiseguys

Do You Hear What I Hear? Said the night wind to the little lamb, "Do you see what I see? Way up in the sky, little lamb, Do you see what I see? A star, a star, dancing in the night With a tail as big as a kite, With a tail as big as a kite." Said the little lamb to the shepherd boy, "Do you hear what I hear? Ringing through the sky, shepherd boy, Do you hear what I hear? A song, a song high above the trees With a voice as big as the the sea, With a voice as big as the the sea." Said the shepherd boy to the mighty king, "Do you know what I know? In your palace warm, mighty king, Do you know what I know? A Child, a Child shivers in the cold-- Let us bring him silver and gold, Let us bring him silver and gold." Said the king to the people everywhere, "Listen to what I say! Pray for peace, people, everywhere, Listen to what I say! The Child, the Child sleeping in the night He will bring us goodness and light, He will bring us goodness and light."

I can barely hear a sound, it's faded All the words you used to say Tried to keep me down, I'm elevated No more rain on this parade I went deep inside, where monsters hide To free my mind, and come out alive Tell me when you kicked me, did you ever think that I would get up? Can you hear me now, so loudly? I'm screaming at the top of my lungs Can you see me now, so proudly? Looking up at what I've become Can you hear me now, up above the crowd? Singing, whoa-whoa Can you hear me now, so loudly? Can you hear me, can you hear me now? Tried to find the light between your shadows But it always seemed to fade It took some time for me to learn to let go But I grew stronger from the pain I went deep inside, where monsters hide To free my mind and come out alive Tell me when you kicked me, did you ever think that I would get up? Can you hear me now, so loudly? I'm screaming at the top of my lungs Can you see me now, so proudly? Looking up at what I've become Can you hear me now, up above the crowd? Singing, whoa-whoa Can you hear me now, so loudly? Can you hear me, can you hear me now? I went deep inside, where monsters hide To free my mind and come out alive Tell me when you kicked me, did you ever think that I would get up? Can you hear me now, so loudly? I'm screaming at the top of my lungs Can you see me now, so proudly? Looking up at what I've become Can you hear me now, up above the crowd? Singing, whoa-whoa Can you hear me now, so loudly? Can you hear me, can you hear me now? Can you hear me, can you hear me now?

When we were young the future was so bright The old neighborhood was so alive And every kid on the whole damn street Was gonna make it big and not be beat Now the neighborhood's cracked and torn The kids are grown up but their lives are worn How can one little street Swallow so many lives Chances thrown Nothing's free Longing for what used to be Still it's hard Hard to see Fragile lives, shattered dreams Jamie had a chance, well she really did Instead she dropped out and had a couple of kids Mark still lives at home cause he's got no job Just plays guitar and smokes a lot of pot Jay committed suicide Brandon OD'd and died What the hell is going on Cruelest dream, reality Chances thrown Nothing's free Longing for what used to be Still it's hard Hard to see Fragile lives, shattered dreams Chances thrown Nothing's free Longing for, used to be Still it's hard Hard to see Fragile lives, shattered dreams
