Voices
Blenders Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

So, are you breathing?
So, do you breathe?

Wake up are you alive
Will you listen to me
I'm gonna talk about some freaky shit now
Someone is gonna die when you listen to me
Let the living die, let the living die

Are you breathing now
Do the wicked see you
You still breathing
You're making me known
Are you breathing now
Do the wicked see you
You still breathing

So, what's up
I wonder why do you listen to me
I'm gonna make you do some freaky shit now
Insane, your gonna die when you listen to me
Let the living die, let the living die, say

So, save me God

I can hear the voice but I don't want to listen
Strap me down and tell me I'll be all right
I can feel the subliminal need to be one
With the voice and make everything go

I can hear the voice but I don't want to listen
Strap me down and tell me I'll be all right




I can feel the subliminal need to be one with
The voice and make everything all right

Overall Meaning

The song "Voices" by Blenders is a dark and haunting portrayal of a troubled mind. The first few lines of the chorus, "So, are you breathing? So, do you breathe?" seem to be a plea for confirmation of life, as if the singer is struggling with the concept of existence. The following lines suggest a disillusionment with the world and a sense of impending doom. The singer speaks of "freaky shit" and someone dying, building an atmosphere of tension and unease.


The second half of the chorus seems to focus on a sense of alienation and being watched. The line "Do the wicked see you" implies a sense of evil lurking in the shadows, while "You're making me known" suggests that the singer feels exposed and vulnerable. The verses continue this theme, with the singer hearing an insistent voice that they don't want to listen to, but can't ignore. The line "I can feel the subliminal need to be one with the voice and make everything go" suggests a desire to give up control and let the voice take over.


Overall, "Voices" is a powerful and disturbing exploration of mental illness and inner turmoil. The lyrics paint a picture of a mind that is fractured and struggling to hold on, while the music provides a haunting backdrop that adds to the overall sense of unease.
