Voices
JR Blackmore and friends Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

An open door calls for attention
He realizes it's not an apt decision
He just does what he wants instead
Because he listens to those voices… in his head
But you can grow numb to just about anything
I've been feeling old at such a young age
I can figure out just about anything
Other than where I'll spend the rest of my days
My first impression of the murder scene
Outer shell abolished, get to the infirmary
He thinks he knows what the others have said
Captivated by those voices… in his head
But you can grow numb to just about anything
I've been feeling old at such a young age
I can figure out just about anything
Other than where I'll spend the rest of my days
I've been feeling numb to just about everything
I haven't gotten used to the passing of days
I can figure out just about anything
And any other person that plays this same game
Isn't it fun? Isn't it fun?!
But you can grow numb to just about anything
I've been feeling old at such a young age
I can figure out just about anything
Other than where I'll spend the rest of my days
I've been feeling numb to just about everything
I haven't gotten used to the passing of days
I can figure out just about anything
And any other person that plays this same game




Isn't it fun? Isn't it fun?
Isn't this fun? Isn't this fun?!
