CAN YOU HEAR WHAT I HEAR
WHISPERS...LAUGHTER
SOFTLY SPEAKING
OBSCENITIES
IN MY EAR

BIG GIRLS, LITTLE BOYS
DIRTY OLD MEN
BECKONING ME
PLEADING...KEEPING
SO MUCH NOISE

LOUDLY...SHOUTING
AT ME...I START
POUTING...CRYING
TRYING TO ESCAPE
BUT THE OLD MAN'S SCOUTING

WATCHING MY EVERY MOVE
YELLING AT ME...TELLING
ME NOT TO MOVE
SENDING HIS MESSENGERS
TO FUCK UP MY GROOVE

WHO ELSE CAN HEAR
THESE DREADFUL
VOICES...THEY'RE
COMING AT ME FROM
EVERYWHERE

EMERGENCY ROOM
PSYCH DOCTOR
NO MORE VOICES
ALL GONE NOW
PILL MAKE ME GLOOM

SO HIGH I CAN KNEEL
CAN'T HEAR THE VOICES
NOR FEEL THE PAIN
DEPRESSION'S A
BITCH...FO REAL

DRUGS I AM DRAWN TO
MASK THE SOUNDS
THE VOICES
IN MY HEAD
ITS EFFECT I PERSUE

PSYCHOTIC EMOTIONS
TAKEN AWAY
CAST ASIDE
THE VOICES ERADICATED
WITH A MAGIC POTION

PSYCHOTIC MEDICATIONS
RELIEVING THE MEDITATIONS
TAKING AWAY THE AUDIBLE INCANTATIONS
THE VISIBLE APPARITIONS
YET I STILL HEAR VARIATIONS

OF VOICES NOT MINE
BUT HIS AND HERS
AND THEIRS
BUT WHISPERS NOT SHOUTS
AHH!!!... THIS HIGH IS DEVINE

SO I NOD...AND KEEP CLAIMING
THE VOICES STILL EXIST
IN MY HEAD...THEY'RE REAL
CAUSE I WANT THEM TO BE
BUT THEY KNOW I'M GAMING

SO THEY STOP FEEDING
MY ADDICTION...POISONING
MY SYSTEM WITH PSYCHOTIC DRUGS
AND UN NEEDED THERAPY
MY ACTIONS WERE MISLEADING

BUT NOW THAT THEY STOPPED
FEEDING TENDING TO MY CRAVE
I HEAR VOICES FOR REAL
A BAD REACTION TO THE BULLSHIT
I RAN... ALL THOSE PILLS I POPPED

I REALIZE NOW THAT THOSE
VOICES WERE MY CONSCIOUS
BECKONING ME... PLEADING ME
FORBIDDING ME NOT TO MOVE
DELIVERING ALL THOSE BLOWS

THE HIGH DECREASES
MY MIND AND BODY'S REACTING
AND ACTING UP
CAUSE WHAT I WANT
THE DRUGS NO LONGER RELEASES
