Hello, is anybody home?

I’ve been talking to myself alone

Tell me what I need to know

To clear the interference on my radio

​

I need somebody to guide me

But who can I trust?

I don’t have enough experience

​

I’m hearing lines

In voices not my own

Inside my mind

I’m never alone

It’s by design

It’s the great unknown

The voices in my head are not my own

​

No I haven’t told a single soul

And I swear you’re mine and mine alone

You’re my dirty secret little mind-control

Baby lie to me or let me go

​

I’m sick of this situation

But what can be done?

I’m the only one not having fun

 

I’m hearing lines

In voices not my own

Inside my mind

I’m never alone

It’s all the places I’ve gone

All the people I’ve known

The voices in my head are not my own

​

Sometimes inside the commotion

I find pauses profound

I’ve a particular notion        

The quiet kills me quicker

The quiet kills me quicker than the sound
