Voices Again
Im in my room
Im biding my time
My finger's on the trigger
Committing a crime
My life is good for nothin
And yet I dont know
Im split decision
God, which way should I go
Its all a joke
Humanitys dead
The streets are easy pickins
All bodies and heads
Referring to a fervor
Its hard to rise above
When youre stuck in a hole
Ive been seen and Ive been heard
To think like that is so absurd
And wheres your concentration in a maze
Im hearing voices again
Now Im free
I take what I want
And no one even bothers
To bugger my hunt
A scary contradiction that you fail to believe
Of the horror and the menace
Im about to conceive
Take my hand and mark my words
When I say its all a blur
And cant you see Im asking you for help
Im hearing voices again
Ive got no one to show me
No bars no wall can hold me
You think youre safe with distance
You dont know my persistence
They play with my intentions
Deceiving my perception
This is my last advance
No second chance
Im hearing voices again

Liquid Sky
I aint no romeo. Im just the man for you.
Holding out as secrets travel, they kind of get to you.
Everybody says that it couldve been something.
Never was a smart kid, never knew a good thing.
Always hearing voices swim ... in your liquid sky.
Liquid sky ... always hearing voices, like no more choices in disguise.
I aint no sacred idol or a saint pretending.
Ill build you up. Ill tear you down. turn you wrong side in.
What am I afraid of? everyones listening.
Standing on my soapbox, lost the beginning.
Always hearing voices ... swim ... in your liquid sky.
Liquid sky ... Im always hearing voices, like no more choices, like a lie.
Its just, its just liquid sky.
Im always hearing voices like electric shock waves in disguise.
I dont know what this means. Ill leave it for your interpretation. its just me at the edge ...

The Only Voices I hear Are On The Inside
I was born not being able to hear
Born not hearing my mother tell me I'm dear
Born never listening to anyone who spoke to me
Born not enjoying music
Born without the ability to gauge sound, unable to hear the clock tick
But since the day I was born
Since before I could talk, I could scorn
There was one thing I always did hate
And that was the thing deepest inside of me,
The thing for which I cursed fate
Worse than deafness or being unable to see
Since the day I was born I heard voices
Not when loved ones talked, but voices that weren't my choice
To hear, voices that were inside my head
Voices that nobody else heard, but I didn't know if they were lying
Because my hearing has always been dead
I'd hear screeching or dying
When none was there
Those voices they'd tell me what to do and how could I deny them?
They were, they are, and they will be the only ones who care
Because they're the only one that speak to me, I can't find the sin
That I committed to be born like this, to be born broken
I've heard more conversations than any other man
And yet I've never heard man utter a word, through my whole lifespan
The only voices I hear are on the inside
And it's the greatest torment that I hide
They'll just tell me I'm crazy, well in writing
But these voices, they accept me, they sing
These voices they know because they've talked to me
These voices are the only I've ever known the
The first voices I've ever heard
Like a mother, I've never listened to a singing bird
But I've listened to a cacophonous symphony of arguing inside my head
These voices are like the woman I did not choose, but wed
I can't separate myself from them
The only time I hear anything, it's torment to condemn
Me, it's funny that I could never speak to anyone but myself
But I guess I've never, ever, been lonely... not ever.
I
Have
Never
Been
Alone
W ho could save me from myselves?

Paradise
(a. bell / v. clarke)
Hey, now did I tell you that I was going?
Yes, Im leaving, cause theres no room in this house.
Youre just too much in love with yourself.
Tired of living in slow motion, gonna make the bubble burst,
And fill the ocean with your crocodile tears from your eyes.
Instead of swimming against the tide.
There are better things that a man can do,
Than to waste his time on a no good fool like you.
Falling into a hole like paradise.
Falling into a hole like paradise.
You say that youre really sorry, but sorry dont work
When youve heard it for the fifty-second time.
You should be ready to say goodbye.
Tired and youre dead and dreamin,
Baby who on earth do you think youre kidding?
Go and put another record on, Im sick of hearing the same old song.
Dont wanna hear your little white lies.
They can break the moon and decimate the sky.
Falling into a hole like paradise.
Falling into a hole like paradise.
There are better things that a man can do,
Than to waste his time on a no good fool like you.
Ill be going away soon, only time will tell
If Ill ever be back again.
Ill be going away soon, only time will tell,
If Ill ever be back again.

No Confidence Man
No confidence man
Charlie got a band in his hand
A rubber loop
Says Im the man you really want
So just act natural
Dont try to tell me your bullshit scheme
cos I have no idea what you mean
No idea
Im just trying to sleep
Ive heard quite enough
Just to listen is really tough
cos youre on it all the time
Hearing the bells its 9am
You better wake up your friend before he wont wake up anymore
cos I got to split Im late to leave
He gave me nothing but grief
And some bullshit story only I would believe
Ive heard quite enough
I heard quite enough
Youre on it all the time
Youre on it all the time
Youre on it all the time
And youre full of it all the time

The Lifting
Grounded, 5 a.m., the nightlite is comforting
But gravity is holding you.
Once settled into sleep,
You have watched
On repeat the story of your life
Across the ceiling
And in review.
Youve said the air was singing.
Its calling you, you dont believe.
These things youve never seen.
Good morning, how are you?
The weathers fine,
The sky is blue.
Its perfect for our seminar.
Now close your eyes and start to breathe,
Allow the noise to recede,
Allow yourself to drift and fly away.
But you just stay.
Youve said the air was singing,
Its calling you, you dont believe
These things youve never seen,
Never heard.
Did you hear these voices?
Did you hear these voices calling?
Did you hear these voices calling you?
Locked into a conference room,
Were only what our minds assume
And rationale is leaving you.
This conceit these systems of belief
Your counselor agrees
You always mark these boundaries now youre free
And with relief.
Youve said the air was singing,
Its calling you, you dont believe
These things youve never seen,
Never heard, never dreamed.
You said the air was singing,
Its calling you, you dont believe
These things youve never seen,
Never heard, never dreamed.
Never, never, never...
Once you had a dream
Of oceans and sunken cities,
Memories of things youve never known
And you have left alone.

6-25-09**What Soughs Through Me
If you admitted hearing voices
In ancient times they would have calledl you
A shaman a prophet a seer or
Maybe even Moses
In Salem you would have been called
A witch a warlock or
One possessed needing to be
Put to death
Part of the art
Of being a poet
Is to listen to the voices
As they sough through you
The sounds are gentle reminders
To pay attention to a color
A smell a word a sight
Then to remember it in words
As a poet I claim
The words I write are mine
But in truth I have heard them
As they rustled through me
It's like hearing the nouises the wind makes
It's not the wind we hear
It's what the wind blows through
And against

Oasis
How many times have you heard, how many times did you say
I think Im going crazy! youre driving me out of my mind!?
We know its just an expression, a silly little phrase.
Not the doorbell, not a bird call .
Koo koo.
How do you drive someone crazy?
To where?
In what kind of car?
Maybe we find a road map.
Im sure its not very far.
We know its not so serious.
We take it all in fun.
Answer the ding dong, do you play ping pong?
Could you?
Trying to get your attention.
Did someone say earths calling you?
Dont say it, dont ever mention, youre hearing more voices than two.
Roasted or raw delicious!
Freeze dried or salted divine!
Was that a...
Are you a...
Are you?
Storms have rearranged the sand millions of years up til now.
Crusaders on a never ending search die for a never ending thirst.
What a fine perforformance, oasis!
Well worth the standing ovation.
Not a mirage.
Not camoflouge to you.

Show Me
We got the same beat runnin round
Through this crazy town
Oh Im sick and I cant hear it anymore
And when we touched as the blood and the rain
Wed be shakin the ground
Shes sick and theres a way to bring her round
Show me what youre waitin for
This moment may not rise again
And your heart will never know
Show me what youre waitin for
The voices may not rise again
And the world will never know
The party drags us over the edge to a poison shore
I cant carry this desire anymore
Across the blue sky callin me with the sweetest demand
She talks to me of mercy make me understand
Show me what youre waitin for
This moment may not rise again
And your heart will never know
Show me what youre waitin for
The voices may not rise again
And the world will never know
And through these years
As the tears chase the rain
The picture has cleared
Can we face the change
Show me what youre waitin for
The voices may not rise again
And the world will never know
Show me what youre waitin for
This moment may not rise again
And your heart will never know

Something strange is going on
Between me and you
But tell me baby

Dont Mean Nothing
Welcome to the big time.
Youre bound to be a star
And even if you dont go all the way,
I know that youll go far
This race is for rats, it can turn you upside down
Aint no one you can count on in this sleazy little town, oh no
Lots of promises in the dark
But dont you open your heart
Chorus
Cause it dont mean nothin
The words that they say
Dont mean nothin
These games that people play
No, it dont mean nothin
No victim, no crime
It dont mean nothin
Till you sign it on the dotted line
The director smiles as you walk in the door
He says, I love your work, babe but
Youre just not what were looking for
Its never what but who it is you know
So easy to get stuck in all that california snow
Take a good look around and youll find
People tryin to mess with your mind
Repeat chorus
Hollywood can be so lonely
Make you the winner of a losing fight
But the party is never over
Cause stars are always shining
Doesnt matter if its day or night
The producer says, let me change a line or two
And a little bit of something can look awfully good to you
And you want to scream, but you gotta keep it all inside
When youre trying to make a living,
There aint no such thing as pride, no
Lots of promises in the dark
But dont you open your heart
Chorus
It dont mean nothing at all. . .

If Youre Not Gonna Love Me Right
(m.seward)
Hey, oh
Hey yeah
Hey baby, hey baby
The phone is ringing
And Im running late
Ive no time to get it
coz Im expecting you at eight
Heard your voice on the message
Im surprised you called
Said youre all tied up
And you aint comin at all
If youre not gonna love me right
Baby dont love me at all
Youre just gonna make me crazy
If youre not gonna love me right
Baby dont love me at all
If youre not gonna love me right, oh
(baby dont love, baby dont love me)
At all
(baby dont love, baby dont love me)
At all
Another box of roses outside on my porch
Twelve long excuses none of them stop the hurt
Wheres this going, do you really care?
Is this real love, I dont know anymore I swear
If youre not gonna love me right
Baby dont love me at all
Baby dont make me crazy
If youre not gonna love me right

If youre not here it makes me feel like
I cant trust you
You make me crazy if you really love me
You see
Oh, I get confused when you hold me next to you
I wanna go further, oh baby yes I do
I just cant hold on to something that wont last
So wed better slow down, and maybe not go so fast
Maybe not go so fast
If youre not gonna love me right
Baby dont love me at all
Youre just gonna make me crazy

If youre not gonna love me
Baby dont love me, baby dont love me, baby dont love me
If youre not gonna love me right

Drama Free
Chorus:
Oh no, Im not the one you see
So dont you go confusing me
Ive got a different mentality
Im trying to be drama free
You stress me out and thats the truth
I dont want no substitute
For the peace of my mind that comes to me
Cause Im living drama free
Can you give me one bit of rest?
Gotta say you didnt pass the test
I thought about it but you aint Gods best
Youre just not what I need
Tried to run a stupid game on me
Im not blind I see quite clearly
Cant have you disrespecting me
So Im gone just like the breeze
Can you give me just one bit of space?
Girl I love you but youre driving me insane
Gossiping always into trouble and then
You want me to justify
Tired of hearing stories, he said, she said
Tired of hearing bout the crazy things you did
Would you listen to me just once or twice?
Make a difference in your life
But you dont now
Bridge:
Ive made changes I know you see
No more old this is my new leaf
Leaving behind all thats stressing me
Needlessly, drama free
(Oh oh oh) Can you hear me?
(Oh oh oh) Can you feel me?
Its not that I dont care about it
Its just that Ive got to do without it
(One) My choice to just be done
(Two) Hope I made it clear to you
(Three) Something that works for me
(Four) Dont want the drama no more

And The Children Laughing
Ah......
Well, I been working up a fever trying to
Straighten up the mess in my mind about this place
I cant contain myself anymore
Cant you see its written all over my face
Why dont you get on your feet
Its about time you got to think
What ever happened to peace
Well open your eyes and youll see children laughing,
Voices singin ,hearts a-beatin ah.....
Your always talkin right and talkin about
The world and its corruption and moral decay
But what you gonna do about it , nothing ,
cause youre more like children then children while they play
Why youre so clean through and through you wont shake hands
With a negro whos maybe cleaner then you
Well listen around and youll hear children laughin ,
Voices singin , hearts a-beatin like they always do
So whats wrong with you , ah...
Youre so blown up with anger about the world
You write the songs about
Yet you dont even know your neighbors name
Now you want to go the the moon and live there
When you know itll only end up the same
How can he give you any gratitude,
With your endless sickenin attitude
You strive to get ahead
But you leave each other dead
Cant you see , children laughin ,
Voices singin , hearts beatin like they always do
So whats wrong with you , ah...
Children laughin , voices singin hearts beatin
Children laughin , voices singin , (fade)

What Makes Me Crazy? -Lila's Story
They found me one day
wandering the wilderness,
hearing voices.
They found me one day
saying 'I hear voices
as clearly as you hear my voice
in this room
yet no one else hears
so that makes me crazy?
The voices denigrate me.
They deny me
and what I want is for them to go away.
Yet, when they speak
they mock me
saying
'they can't hear us because we are blocking them'
and they think you are crazy- this is what makes
us strong
and you weak.'
I hear these voices
and have to drown them out
so I don't hear.
So I don't hear
So I can sleep.
What I need is someone
who believes me:
they know if someone does
their power
is gone.
Does that make me crazy?
I don't think so..

Unwell
All day staring at the ceiling
Making friends with shadows on my wall
All night hearing voices telling me
That I should get some sleep
Because tomorrow might be good for something
Hold on
Feeling like Im headed for a breakdown
And I dont know why

But Im not crazy, Im just a little unwell
I know right now you cant tell
But stay awhile and maybe then youll see
A different side of me
Im not crazy, Im just a little impaired
I know right now you dont care
But soon enough youre gonna think of me
And how I used to be...me
Im talking to myself in public
Dodging glances on the train
And I know, I know theyve all been talking about me
I can hear them whisper
And it makes me think there must be something wrong with me
Out of all the hours thinking
Somehow Ive lost my mind

But Im not crazy, Im just a little unwell
I know right now you cant tell
But stay awhile and maybe then youll see

And how I used to be

Pretty soon theyll come to get me
Yeah, theyre taking me away

Finding Me
I dont think you notice
When you see my face
I guess youre waiting
To spin me around again
Wheels I guess are turning
Somewhere inside my head
I know that this is
Deeper than you get
But youre coming back again
You dont mean to waste my time
But youre coming back so

Dont tell me
How to be
cause I like some suffering
Dont ask me

Up on getting through

Who Im talking to
Oh so much for nothing
But nothing means so much
I know its touching
But Ive been out of touch
And its all that I can do
Im a sight for my sore eyes
But its all I am so
Chorus
I dont think you notice
When I cant reach out
I guess youre waiting
On somebody else again
Oh so much for talking
Its all been said before

But I wish youd just say more
But youre going off again
When I try to just hold on
But youre going off so

Scary But Fun
The first time you rode your bicycle down the streets, you fell on your hands,
(? ) and bruises, the first time you dropped then you ran,
Scary but fun, take a chance in life you have one/won,
A little bit scary, but fun, did you forget what its like to be young?
I remembered I learned how to water-ski, and the road ran over my head,
Broke several bones in my body, I got right up and did it again
Scary but fun take a chance in life you have one/won,
A little bit scary, but fun, did you forget what its like to be young,
See you standing on the corner, watching lights as the action goes by,
Hearing music coming from the neighbour, as they sit in the silence, hear them cry,
Take to your wings, butterfly,
Scary, but fun, crazy, but so much fun,
Scary, but fun, crazy, but so much fun,
Scary but fun, take a chance in life you have one/won,
Scary, little bit scary, but fun, did you forget what its like to be young?
Fun! (x3)

Just a little scary, but so much fun,

Takin The Easy Way Out
Writers: leo sayer & david courtney
You contend
That youll never got back to her again
Youre as free as a night without end
So you tell your friends
Just what you had to endure
When you told her never, never again
And as the room about you starts to bend
You pretend
That youve taken the easy way out
Though you know ehn you told her last night
You were fakin the easy way out
With one hand reachin fo the door
But your feet werent movin
They were nailed to the floor
As she told you once more
Theres no easy way to get out
Shes not like you
Shed rather stay at home
n not get the blues
And if you ever do try to intrude
Shes so respectfully rude
So it was hard to believe
Last night while you were drunk n
Threatening to leave
That she walked through the door with such ease
n threw you the key
And shes takin the easy way out
And youre alone with no number to call
Shes taken the easy way out
With one hand reachin for the door
And you so speechless
Marooned on the floor
She walked out of your life
Couldnt stand it no more
Now youre all on your own
cos shes taken the easy way out
You know shes taken the easy way out
Oh, but your pride will only admit to a lie
Yeah, shes taken the easy way out
But, to your friends
Youre the hero of the night
Drowning with beef all the tears in your eyes
Hopin it dont show that youre dyin inside
cause you cant quite believe
That shes taken the easy way out
Theres no goin back now
Stuck here on your own
Lookin for a home
Drunk and on the streets
Stuck on your feet
