Voices
Nathan Brumley Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Voices (DJ Titus)
I've been hearing voices ringing in the silence deep in me
I try to recognize them cause they're so alive in all my dreams
Don't know if I am crazy now hearing noises in the crowd all alone
Is it all just in my head moments I just can't forget what I've known

Carousel spinning round up and down
Reminding me of the endless doubts
So many thoughts in the dark of my past
I don't know where to go so alone
With these voices in my head

Cries of what I should have been
Haunting me with angels breath
I'm reminded of my past
Though I can't go back again
You will always last

Voices call me never-ending in the dark
Voices screaming in my feelings through the scars

I don't know why you called you've away too long
Out of my heart
I relish all the parts but now I'm torn apart
By all the miles in the fog

Now you are enemy the demon of my memories
I can't forget
Now I hear the reverie the past I hear it whispering
And I lose my breath

Voices in the past whisper in my head
They call your name call your name




And I will not forget your voice is in their breath
It never fades never fades
