That Voice

You’re telling me

Just go with the flow

No limitations

And you’re telling me

To live up to all

Of your expectations

–

I know sometime I might

Figure out this life

But for now I don’t know what I’m doing

Yeah, I really don’t know what I’m doing

–

But that voice

That quiet voice

Screaming out for me to hear

And that noise

That vicious noise,

It’s growing louder and louder

–

I can’t know

I don’t know

What I should fear

Cause that noise

That constant noise

Is too loud for me to hear

–

You’re telling me

Stop listening

To that silent whisper

And you’re telling me

It’s so much sweeter

To close my eyes and shut it out

–

And I know

Sometime I might

Figure out these words

But for now I don’t know what I’m doing

Yeah, I really don’t know what I’m doing

–

And that voice

That quiet voice

Confusing me with words and tears

But the noise

That vicious noise

Welcomes me with open arms

–

I can’t know

I don’t know

What I can do

Cause that voice

That constant voice

Makes me question what is true

–

All the hours I spent

Thinking through the calls

All the days I spent

Chasing after shadows

All the years I spent

Waiting for the best

Glancing back I see that

They’re all gone

–

But that voice

That quiet voice

Reminds me of hope

And that noise

That vicious noise

Teaches me its death

And my heart

My foolish heart

Pumps acid through my veins
