from Seven Years To Dust by Jeremias Langsämmer / Laxá / Siegfried Jünger / These Guitars Say Sorry.

about

"The Hailer" by These Guitars Say Sorry offers a modern twist on the age-old tradition of harbormasters hailing incoming ships, set against an alt folk/alt rock backdrop. With a raw and unfiltered approach akin to Billy Bragg's style, the UK singer-songwriter explores the theme of anonymity in contemporary life. Through gritty storytelling and stripped-down melodies, the song delves into the existential quest for identity amidst the bustling chaos of modern society. Reflective and resonant, "The Hailer" captures the universal longing for connection and recognition, delivering a poignant narrative that echoes across genres and generations.

Lyrics

Who are you?
And where do you come from?
Who are you?
And where have you been?

I stand here shouting
Hoping someone will hear me
But my voice just floats away on the breeze

I'm the hailer, I'm, the hailer. I'm the hailer
And I've come to bring you home
I've come to bring you home

Give me three guesses and I'll make a mess of it
Tell me your story and I'll write the end
I hate to confess to things best left unsaid
I hope it all works out
I suppose it depends
I hope it all works out for the best
I hope it all works out for the best

Where would you be without someone to hold you
Where would I be without someone who cares
I'm, standing here waiting not sleeping or praying
Caught in between my hope and despair

I'm the hailer, I'm, the hailer. I'm the hailer
And I've come to bring you home
I've come to bring you home
I know you've got no home
