Lyrics:
Follow the sound of my voice
I’m right here, I’m right here
Follow the sound of my voice
Dry your tears
I’m right here, I’m right here
There’s a red kite in a dead tree in the park
Like something straight out a French new-wave movie
There’s a mother with her toddler in her arms
Wondering how she’s gonna raise that baby
The doctors spelled out all their medical jargon
Aggressive retinal degeneration
She stares at that kite while their words ring in her head:
“I’m sorry ma’am, your son will never see again”
She points a finger at that kite stuck in that tree
She says baby come on baby can’t you see
See how high it is, how bright it is
How it shines against the sky
Can you see it if you try
But he says “I can’t see it”
“Darling,” she says
“Follow the sound of my voice
I’m right here, I’m right here
Follow the sound of my voice
Dry your tears
I’m right here, I’m right here”
Now there’s an acne-covered teenage terror
Upstate New York’s blind piano prodigy
All the kids call him the next Ray Charles
And he plays in a band with his little brother
His brother guides him by the shoulder through these
Loud and crowded venues trying to
Steer that drunken ship through the night
And it hurts a little more each time he watches his big brother try
To find his own way
Up on that stage
He says “I can help you,
Let me help you-
Follow the sound of my voice
I’m right here, I’m right here
Follow the sound of my voice
Dry your tears
I’m right here, I’m right here”
When I feel like I am stumbling in the dark
When I get lost inside this great big world
When I feel like I’m invisible, like nobody cares
You’re always there
Saying “I can see you,
I can see you-
Follow the sound of my voice
I’m right here, I’m right here
Follow the sound of my voice
Dry your tears
I’m right here, I’m right here”
Right here

This breaks the heart of a stoic old man. It reminds me of the story about Art Garfunkel, when he helped a blind friend that he convinced to go to college. He taught him his way around campus and to navigate the subway system platforms and stops. One day, he stood close to his friend as he waited for him. Once he became aware, his friend smiled and greeted him with the nickname he had given Art. "Hello Darkness, my old friend...". He shared the story with Paul Simon and the rest, as they say, is history...
Amazing. Ty for the insight and inspiration. 🫶🏼
Thank you for sharing this…🙏🏽✨
This song reminds me of Jesus Christ! ❤
This touches deeply for me.. My dad lost his eyesight last year. Though he's a very strong man I do see moments where it takes a deep toll on him. He's a very independent person since childhood and to see him now like this, breaks my heart.
Thank you for sharing your story here...deeply appreciate it.
Love and hugs from India, Shillong.
Reading the story behind this song made me tear up. It made me think how much my bro helped me in high school for 2yrs since I am on The Spectrum.
The singers brother is the pianist who is blind.
The song is beautiful. Thank you so much Casey for never giving up, and thank you so much to Sam for always being there for him. The universe bless you. 🤍
Blown away by this song, all of it, the lyrics, the music, the story. It is one of the most authentic, genuine, loving songs I've ever heard.
Your storytelling never ceases to amaze me!! It's the last verse for me. 😭 Your words mean more than you'll ever know. ❤
If you can’t feel the ❤ in this video you cant feel 😻✌
This song is seriously so beautiful and tear jerking. So many tracks on this album are emotional and amazing. It may be shaping up to be my favorite from you guys. Thank you!
love the story behind this, what a loving family too!
WOW. Haven't heard such a moving song in such a long time. Beautiful! I remember meeting you all years ago when you were opening for LIGHTS, and then through 96x at The Norva. We had a little private acoustic show backstage and it's still one of the most memorable moments of my life - simply because this music makes me think of nothing but the moment.
Captivated. 💛
Oh my gosh, I’m a mess now. What a beautiful song, and what an awesome relationship you brothers have! Thanks for sharing your talent with the world.
Wrecked me. This is beautiful, guys.
One of the first here. Been with you guys ever since American Oxygen. Great song, as always.
this one hits harder than anything they've released before, its so personal and beautiful
This song brought me to tears. The BEST of brotherly love ❤❤❤
most underrated album of the year, very soon & it will be #1...Every song has so much emotion, storytelling, & truth. Thank you for your inspiration.
How can we ever thank you for this song. So moving , the love you have for each other is a breath of fresh air in such a troubling world. Thank you from the botton of my heart!
You tell the stories and we live them through your voice and his fingers. You will always be my most amazing live concert ever! Thank you both for your music and your stories!
Five years ago at 38 y.o., I lost the sight of my right eye (several retinal detachments). This song makes me emotional. Thank you, Casey and Sam, for this beautiful song!
Heard this live in Cleveland, May 26th. It was perfect.
It goes sooo deep.... far from you in Germany... this is love...between you both... between all the people you shared with.... thank you for this deep feelings and being a part of your "lovestory" for a few minutes🫶
Beautiful 😍 song -- Beautiful story ❤️ 😍 ❤❤❤❤❤❤
What a beautiful story. The video says a lot in of itself. I turned the lights off getting ready to go to bed and I realized, what if I was never able to turn the light back on again. This is the reality for many and I can't help but think of these selected few as very special in this universe. They've experienced more than any of us can ever imagine to see.
Definitely a Townies I reamber mom was so protective ❤ love yall 👏🏾
Pure love, pure talent, everything in this song ❤
It’s the way they’re always happy to share their story with the world that makes them and their talent so special! They never fail on giving it all on their art and for that I’m so thankful! WLYSM GUYS! Everyone remember to STREAM!! LET’S GOOO!! ❤️🔥🇲🇽
I'm tearing up
this is absolutely beautiful
Amazing. crying for so many reasons. Thank you for sharing .
Oh my heart.... see you in Norfolk!
These dudes don't miss
Cherish your brother and the memories…one day a brother leaves 😢 thank you 🙏 keep loving.😭
After "Half Life" I figured I'd hit the gym a little more, punch the bag a little more, and not cry during another X Ambassadors video. Then, they just walked right up and sucker punched my emotional state of being with this one. Halfway through the video, I realized that the pianist is blind. Wow. Got me again.
i have never, and i mean never had a song make me cry. I am fighting tears. I will forever hold dear the grasp yall have on my heart!
It's been a long time since a song made me cry. And this one has me literally bawling.
Finally it came out. Been waiting so long.
Wow, just beautiful, touching, my whole body shakes when I listen to you sing this song. THANKS
I cried, man. This is just outstanding.
Touching, feeling, the sound of love

I wonder if Casey gets sick of the songs about him? Like, he's living with this disability, but he has to keep hearing about how his sight has affected everyone else around him. I realize his blindness is something that everyone who knows him reflects on, and has to take into consideration, but I just wonder if it ever feels awkward to him.

Beautiful ❤️
