The voices they whisper, Insults that they bare; They scratch at my back, They pull at my hair. They dare me to open, The window and try And spread out my wings And see if I fly; The voices they tell me That "death is for you", And I don't respond, I know that it's true. They yell and they scream, "we'll be here forever!" And even in death, I'm with the voices... Together.

The voices they whisper.
The voices they whisper, Insults that they bare; They scratch at my back, They pull at my hair. They dare me to open, The window and try And spread out my wings And see if I fly; The voices they tell me That "death is for you", And I don't respond, I know that it's true. They yell and they scream, "we'll be here forever!" And even in death, I'm with the voices... Together.
