Bloodrock Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
How I've always wanted to give you more
Distant voices want from me
All that I have to give
Well I find that I've run out of choices
But I still hear the call of the voices
And they're pulling me deeper inside them
Time to start and take the right direction
Time is clearly true
Search your thoughts, direct your course toward the sun
I am truly one
Waiting for the moment when I will see
Days gone by are only a memory
Distant voices take from me
All that I have to give yeah!
The lyrics to Bloodrock's song "Voices" express the singer's anticipation and excitement as they hear a call that they have been waiting for. They express a desire to give more and a willingness to give all they have, even though they feel like they have run out of choices in life. Despite this feeling of uncertainty, the voices they hear are pulling them deeper inside, urging them to keep moving forward.
The second stanza suggests that the singer is now ready to take action and move in a positive direction. The voices are encouraging them to search their thoughts and direct their course toward the sun. The singer declares that they are truly one, perhaps speaking to a sense of unity with the voices they hear and a greater purpose they feel is driving them. The final lines of the song express a sense of urgency, as if the singer knows they only have a limited amount of time to give all they have before it is taken away.
"Voices" is a song full of emotion and passion. It seems to speak to the human experience of feeling pulled in different directions, but ultimately striving to find meaning and purpose in life.

on Fancy Space Odyssey
I can't believe the world that I'm livin in
Climb up to the top just to start over again
Livin' in a hoedown
just the blues and lowdown
The turnpike on(of?) time
in our every mind
Singin' to my friends
Patty, Machin(?) and Laverne
Tryin' to reach some rock engrossed(?) in a silver Boston(?)
Dancin' in the strobe light
QT for another fight!
Kill!
Kill!
I'm watching the world
that's watching us all
Sardines(?) on the cushion
squeezing like a push-on
All the kids are knocked out
on artificial rock-out
Everyone's condition
for the preposition
and the band is starting to blow(glow?)
What a show, what a show, what a show, what a show show show!
Someone is mumblin' "show me the way to go home"
Gather up the people and come when we're open again
Livin' in a hoe-down
just the blues and low-down
I'm watching the world
that's keeping us all
Sardines(?) on the cushion
squeezing like a push-on
All the kids are knocked out
on artificial rock-out
Everyone's condition
for the preposition
and the band is starting to blow(glow?)
What a show, what a show, what a show, what a show show show!
Someone is mumblin' "show me the way to go home"
Gather up the people and come when we're open again
Livin' in a hoe-down
Just the blues and low-down
I'm watching the world
that's keeping us all
Got to get the show-down
Riding ??? slow-down
Got to have ya low-down
ridin' on your hoe-down
Let me get the show-down
ridin' on low-down
And so folks
as the sun slowly rises in the East
{A-yo Meff}??? Adios mutha!
