Say, can you hear
Is there a meaning to your grief?
Where there is pain
You see grace
As if sacrifice
Was meaningful end in itself
Your trial and error is error and error
Staying at the end of a hallway
Dozens of doors you never tried to open
Narrow vision, you’re the scapegoat
You try to fix things that have never been
Hoping for your turn
All the basement stories you heard
Waiting for the world
To bend around you
You’re self-absorbed
Raving about your cryptic ways
Aren’t willing to change
Old grudges
Staying at the end of a hallway
Dozens of doors you never tried to open
Narrow vision, you’re the scapegoat
You try to fix things that have never been
Staying at the end of a hallway
Dozens of doors you never tried to open
Narrow vision, you’re the scapegoat
You try to fix things that have never been broken
Waiting for the world
To bend around you
the songs of this band are so refreshing
Dont forget video's aesthetics
cyborg please come out and haunt me!
I see you cyborg
I feel so relaxeddddddddd
Sublime.
This song actually changed my life for the better. “Dozens of doors you’ve never tried to open” hit like a truck. Quit my job at my absolute lowest and I now do what I wanted to. Things are looking up for the first time in a long time. Thank you Men I Trust.
I wish you the absolute best. Go get that win king.
😊
It's crazy, I too quit my job after I found this band and this song. Lyrics really hit and made me realize that *I had* to do something if I want change, it won't be given to me. That's why this is one my top fav songs.
I had the same experience. Quit doing the shitty job i hated, and now am doing a shitty job i don't hate. it honestly helps your psyche a lot.
Dozens of doors hey? I see what you mean 😏
The lyrics I think are meant to describe a person waiting for the world to bend to his comfort, instead of risking things, by opening doors and trying new things he stays stagnant waiting for the opertunity to come to him instead of chasing it down as he should. you ended up writing a song about me.
Same here. This shit hit deep.
I thought it was about a toxic person who feels like they're full of sh*t.
Fucking same I hate my life and I’ve wasted so much of my potential. Now I’m seventeen and I’m supposed to fucking attempt to go to uni but how
@@rawanx_x at least you are 17 i am almost 27 and only in the last couple years figured out what i wanted to truly do which is become an artist, and maybe a multi talented one. take this advice, just go for it now.
@@devernepersonal3636 good advice I'm currently 16 and have to look into college in the fall without having a strong grasp on what it is I want to do with my future so I'm just waiting on the world to bend around me
Men I Trust is possibly/secretly the best band in the world
It definitely is, without a secret. In my mind at least
let me correct it for you:
certainly
M. Glace indeed i like this kind of music
well , like me "The War on Drugs" too
Lo es without a doubt!!!
Men I trust,in my opinion is one the most iconic bands of the 2010’s. They are a part of an entire new genre that speaks to their audience and captivates the misrepresented people in society,which in fact is most people as the mainstream media music is extremely irrelevant from most of our lives. Thank you for this gem. Will hope to see you all live one day. Peace.
honestly think they might be the best band in the world
M. Glace totally agree
@Angelo Lima That's a fair opinion and I respect your view as not everyone feels the same. Thanks for the feedback!
sumed up perfectly thank you for saying wat i always wanted too
also may i had that this kind of music beatuifly sad. this sweetly sad music is how we express our saddness, not metal because its not oever the top . i feel it expresses and relates to how i feel better than death metal.
I've heard their name before but can't be certain I've ever heard anything until now and I look forward to getting into bed with them.
This song has lead to my greatest spiritual awakening, truly. Thank you. The lyrics just woke me the fuck up.
Congratulations! ❤
How you're doing so far?
@@Halo_Legend im far more closer to becoming who I need to be than I was a year ago
This bassline is so sick!!
as usual
It makes a huuuuuge difference!
YES!!!
one of the best basslines i’ve ever heard and the dreamy guitar couldn’t compliment it more perfectly
I love how the video is basically reaching out about being on your own bubble at the end of a hallway with thousands of doors that could lead to a new experience and its never taken, and yet in the middle of the video its also celebrating individuality; hes dancing on his own in his own little bubble completely clueless but also careless about what the other rooms could bring with heir own experiences, and yet.. happy in his own little peace. in his own little room of self love. This video just adds so much joy to the song. celebrate who you are. ;)
That's not what I see in the video at all. I see a person desperate to make reality into something it will never be. His dancing alone is how he convinces himself he is someone else. There is no real celebration going on here. That's why he makes that face when he cleans the already clean mirror. It's as if he was hoping to see something different when he wiped it off, and was disappointed to see himself look the same. Idk I would say there's definitely room for interpretation, but he seems more desperate than genuinely happy
It's not about any bubble though. That's a wrong metaphor. It's, literally as the lyrics said, about being "self-absorbed".
It's about people who revel in their own misery because they are egocentric and love to feel like the main protagonist in the story of life. About those who would rather wait for their princes or princesses in shining armor than look for them, who never leave their comfort zone and just wait for life to change, never accepting the effort of changing themselves.
I know what I'm talking about as I was one of them, also I know many people like that.
But it's also just an interpretation, it might be about something slightly different.
@@Halo_Legend I love all three of these in their own respects. I see him preparing for a motivational talk or something that he's concocted himself and waiting for people to show. No one does so he comes to the end of the failure and instead dances because he feels like they're the idiots for missing out. There is certainly desperation on his face but also ignorance, being self-absorbed, raving about his cryptic ways that, in his mind, no one else understands. He's at the end of his hallway waiting for them to come to him. He doesn't try to open doors because he doesn't care. He has the answers. Or so he thinks. It's such a great video!
ah pffffffffffffft, whatever
Literally my life in a nutshell or should I say "music video"?
I never knew I needed a song so much in my life till I heard this got all teary eyed with the lump in my throat it's a good thing 😂
The cinematography and the acting of the guy really resonates with me
Ah yes, as a fellow businessperson I "vibe" with this video, as they say
This is one of them bops that hits harder the more you slow it down.
The strum of the chords establishes an instant mood and the acting... is impressive. I really want to hear him for whatever speech he was practicing
This song, in my opinion, sounds like a more dreamy, ethereal, cute and less distorted Strokes song in all the best ways. I love this song so much
This song is literally all I needed
This lyrics are just so right about people. I feel like it's applicable to all people to some extent, for some people more than others, of course. I love the music that make you really face yourself and it's just, for the lack of the better word - true. Nothing, but appretiation for the band!
This is one of the best songs I’ve ever heard in my life
These lyrics hit hard
as usual
The lyrics are so wise and unique
as usual
Best band that you have never heard of. You probably did and didn't know it was Men I Trust.
The lyrics make me feel semi called out hahaha
They calling us all out lol
it feels like i was at the end of the same hallway now..
Lw
Make a note of it and promise to improve :)
Felt the same damn thing lol
Let's get it million 🥰 such a great track 70s vibes 😎
idky, but there's just something about 2:29 - 2:38 that i can't help but especially love. im obsessed w this music video but that part just gets me
Please never stop making music, it's so beautiful! Thank you
It's official...I have fallen in love with this group!
Welcome
Perfect video-lyrics sync at 00:19 : he holds the pain in his hand (the bread in French!)
Jesus died for our sins according to the scriptures, was buried, and rose again the third day according to the scriptures.
Devastating lyrics. One of your greatest songs!
You aren’t just making music, you are making vibes that i would die for. Love you guys ❤
This video concept is really cool
loving the chord progressions and the vocal blend with the guitars. actually I just love it all.
Say, can you hear?
Is there a meaning to your grief?
Where there is pain you see grace
As if sacrifice was meaningful and in itself
Your trial and error is error and error
Staying at the end of a hallway
Dozens of doors you never tried to open
Narrow vision, you're the scapegoat
Try to fix things that have never been broken
You're self-absorbed
Raving about your cryptic ways
Aren't willing to change
Old grudges
Hoping for your turn
All the basement stories you heard
Waiting for the world
To bend around you
Staying at the end of a hallway
Dozens of doors you never tried to open
Narrow vision, you're the scapegoat
Try to fix things that have never been broken
Waiting for the world to bend around you
Waiting for the world to bend around you
Waiting for the world to bend around you
Staying at the end of a hallway
Waiting for the world to bend around you
Dozens of doors you never tried to open
Waiting for the world to bend around you
Narrow vision, you're the scapegoat
Waiting for the world to bend around you
Try to fix things that have never been broken
Not only is their music an amazing and unique genre, but their videos are a strangely captivating film genre! Like I can’t stop watching it! It gives a sense of sorrow, nostalgia, and life in general! Love it!
This band is really ahead of their time ❤
Best new music video in easily ten years.
I’ve probably only listened to like 2 men I trust songs that didn’t IMMEDIATELY catch my attention. They are something else. So good
Holy crap, seizure warning! Fantastic song! I heard this a few mornings ago randomly... I've fallen in love with the music this band creates.
*_One of their best songs!_*
Captivating every second
the men i trust to put out good music
MOOOOOOD FAM ❤
Just being introduced to this band and I honestly am trying to find out where I’ve been for a whole year. Their music is so smooth and reminds me so much of Mac Demarco.
im happy i discovered it during summer!
Amazing acting. The expressions!
No solo por la melodía sino por la letrade esta canción; Say can you hear se volvió una de mis canciones favoritas de todos los tiempos.
Always loving the bass line of this band 👽💜
日本からも応援してます!
iTunes Storeから買いましたよ!
Love you Emma and Men I trust. Thanks for all these songs. ❤️❤️
Never gonna stop loving your creations
I doesn't found this band and this song, the universe were kind enough to let my dying soul to listen to all their heavenly song 😢
love it
I met her in phx she is so nice. I wish I knew more about the other band members they were all super cute on stage and it was a wonderful event. I will never forget. My friend dragged me to see another band and had no idea you guys were there! They all play so well together and you know they are having a good time. Thank you for taking a picture with me.
Thank you so much I had so much anxiety that day. You made my night men I trust
Best Song I know from Men I trust...the Lyrics, the Video, I just love everything about this.
Ok I first heard it as a garage version and loved how chill it was, tried this and then thought: ok, if the lyrics are good (it's kinda hard to understand them just by listening, but that's ok) then I'm gonna subscribe. So I read them.
I'm beyond impressed, this topic resonates with me as it's a common problem AND I love the tune, so great.
Discovered this song / band/ album today and it has blown me away. Unreal energy..
the vibe of this is unbelievable
Wow. Such good songwriting! Men I Trust are a cut above. All their songs are such high quality.
I'm weirdly attracted to the man in this video
Also I hate how I completely understand the meaning behind this song/video. He ravels in his own little world in his head, being stuck in it at the same time because he's too afraid to go on and at this point he doesnt even see the other 'doors'/options because he's so self absorbed and insecure and the way he's just dancing and rambling in this one room going 'nuts' XD basically but at the end of the he's at the exact same spot. kinda sad & kinda relatable.
my favorite song !!!
Imagine smoking a joint putting your headphones on and listening to this song in ur bed late in the night ....lord the aesthetics take my mind to very far wonderful places🌅 Men i trust is hands down...the best thing to ever happen to dream pop and the world at large🙌🏾....thankyou for existing i love you guys so very much ...🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬from Uganda
Jordy Jo lol I did this last night
Im guessing u had the time of ur life that not alot of people are firmiliar with😍🔥🔥
I can't imagine it because I already did :)
@@fateca01 beautiful 🙏🏾
I drink cheap vodka and enjoy this so much, sending love from Czech Republic
I lived with my abusive father for a few years after giving him chance while i was completely lost.These lyrics totaly reflect how it was. Why did i do it. And why did i stay. Sitting around sacrificing my life. Now i know.. glad they exoressed my emotion.. cuz it was very hard
Glad I found out about these guys, great video and song
this song and video = absolute masterpiece

So simple but so good and warm
It appears so meaningful to me, isn't this song beautiful?
Those chords and that melody hits hard. It must be those darn stacked fifths again.
They make the kind of music perfect for me-time at the end of the day just before bed.
Man, dream pop and lyrics like that hit like a trailer.
"Say, can you hear" debuted at #13 on the New Alternative 40 Chart this week!
Got the alert while I was in a school meeting and I could not wait to get home and listen!
i love this song sm
The best piece of music I ever heard.. prove me wrong otherwise
This song may be the wake up call I needed. Beautiful sounds.
