Matisyahu Message In A Bottle lyrics

Message In A Bottle by Matisyahu


Just a castaway

An island lost at sea

Another lonely day

With no one here but me

More loneliness

Than any man could bear

Rescue me before I fall into despair



I'll send an SOS to the world

I'll send an SOS to the world

I hope that someone gets my

I hope that someone gets my

I hope that someone gets my

Message in a bottle



A year has passed since I wrote my note

But I should have known straight from the start

Only hope can keep me together

Love can mend your life

But love can break your heart



I'll send an SOS to the world

I'll send an SOS to the world

I hope that someone gets my

I hope that someone gets my

I hope that someone gets my

Message in a bottle



TV's a jet stream hold off until tomorrow

Internet flat screen what's the message in your bottle



She'll be comin around the mountain when she comes full throttle

Battleaxe can chop em down that's the call of the wild

There's no message in your bottle emptiness its just hollow

Think the way to wake up is through sex that's just shallow

Tossing seed into the wind producin loss and sorrow

Draculas on MTV sucking blood from the marrow

Hearts hardened like stone wantin to be known like Pharaoh

'Said to let me people go that's just the call of the wild

Children drowning in the rivers…

…hard to swallow

If its roots are cut off how we can feed this flower

Might look pretty temporary, but rotten within the hour

Disconnected from its source with no footsteps to follow

Chasing death…bridge that's narrow.



Walked out this morning

Don't believe what I saw

A hundred billion bottles

Washed up on the shore

Seems I'm not alone at being alone

A hundred billion castaways

Looking for a home



I'll send an SOS to the world

I'll send an SOS to the world

I hope that someone gets my

I hope that someone gets my

I hope that someone gets my

Message in a bottle
