Matisyahu - Message in a Bottle Lyrics

Just a castaway
Island lost at sea
Another lonely day
No one here but me, oh
More loneliness
Than any man could bear
Rescue me before I fall into despair

I'll send my SOS to the world
Send my 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

Said, a message in a bottle

A year has passed since I wrote my note
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 my SOS to the world
Send my 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

Said, a 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
Dracula's on MTV sucking the 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, swimming, babbling, I was taught
Hit the wall, first thing, drop and fall, 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 disguised as life, world's a bridge that's narrow

Woke up this morning
Won't believe what I saw
Hundred billion bottles
Washed up on the shore
Seems I'm not alone at being alone
Hundred billion castaways
Searching for their home

I'll send my SOS to the world
Send my 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

Said, a message in a bottle
Said, a message in a bottle
Said, a message in a bottle
