The Whisperer
David Guetta Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I longed for a new beginning
But I couldn't look down
No, I couldn't look down
I'm a coward
A million voices screamed in my head
And I felt sure that I would give in
Why couldn't I now?
Your voice was louder
But by design God gave me feelings
And by design they shall not kill
But when the noises overwhelm me
I feel sure that they will
Oh, liberation comes in whatever form to save me
I hit bottom, and then the whisper comes
You whisper in the breeze
Whispers that I needed
Quiet words soothe the hurt
Whisperer
And though I struggle through the days now
It helps to know that you are listening
So I'll just wait it out
I'll wait this out
By the hour
But by design God gave me feelings
And by design they shall not kill
But when the noises overwhelm me
I feel sure that they will
Oh, liberation comes in whatever form to save me
I hit bottom, and then the whisper comes
You whisper in the breeze
Whispers that I needed
Quiet words soothe the hurt
Whisperer
In David Guetta's song The Whisperer, the singer describes standing on the edge, metaphorically representing a feeling of hopelessness and desperation. They long for a new beginning but cannot bring themselves to look down. The singer goes cold in the face of overwhelming noise and a million voices screaming in their head, and despite feeling sure that they will give in, they are saved by the whisper of someone in their ear. The whisper is a soothing, reassuring presence that brings a divine revelation that helps the singer cope with their feelings of overwhelm.
The song suggests that God designed humans with emotions for a reason, but the voices inside our heads can become too much to bear. It is the whisper, the gentle, soothing voice of someone we trust, that can provide respite from the noise and help us find calm. The singer expresses gratitude for the presence of this whisper in their life, which helps them to wait it out and get through the difficult times.
Overall, The Whisperer is a powerful meditation on the struggle of the human mind and the importance of faith and hope in navigating difficult emotions. It reminds listeners that even when things seem overwhelming, there is always a way to find peace and comfort.

I was standing on the edge
I was on the brink of a major change in my life
I'd long for a new beginning
I had been hoping for a fresh start
But I couldn't look down, but I couldn't look down
I was too scared to face the unknown
I went cold
I became paralyzed with fear
A million voices scream in my head
I was overwhelmed by my own thoughts
And I felt sure that I would give in
I was convinced that I would fail
So why couldn't I now, why couldn't I now?
I wondered why I couldn't find the strength to persevere
Your voice was louder
Your encouragement and support were more powerful than my doubts and fears
By design, God gave me feelings
It is natural to have emotions
And by the design they shalt not kill
But they should not overpower or harm me
But when the noises overwhelm me
When my thoughts become too much to bear
I feel sure that they will
I worry that my feelings will consume me
Oh revelation, comes in whatever form to save me
I have faith that a breakthrough will come when I need it most
I hear voices, and then the whisper comes
I am visited by positive influences when I least expect them
Your whisper in the breeze
Your guidance through the challenges feels like a gentle breeze
Your whisper's what I'm needing
Your words of encouragement are what I crave
Quiet bursts, so to hurt the whisperer
The negative voices try to silence the positive influences, but they can't
And though I struggle through the days now
Even though I am still fighting through my difficulties
It helps to know that you are listening
Knowing that I have someone who cares and supports me makes a difference
So I just wait it out
Sometimes, all I can do is be patient and have faith that things will improve
I'll wait this out, by the hour
I am willing to be patient for as long as it takes

Thank you so much for including the Suicide Prevention Hotline at the end! I do no need it, but I have been suicidal before and deeply appreciate that you provided it for others who are suffering.
Hang tight, friends. Things can always be good again.
