I hear voices in my head
I hear voices screaming in my head
I hear their cry as I listen closer
All I hear is silent cries seeking for justice
Quietly screaming to reach out
I hear voices screaming in my head
I can only visualize the cry
I have a headache because I can’t make out the words
It’s so painful to see someone saying something you can’t make out the words to it
I need to paint the visuals of this painful dream
I can’t even sketch the graphics of the saying.
I hear voices in my head
Everyday they get worse, yet everyday the voices fade away and I hear them cry
The empty souls with no voices cry out for help
I need to help them
How do I help a broken soul when mine is not warm
I have a headache; I need to hear what you’re saying
Hush now and stop your cry
Be still now and at peace with yourself
Sit now and tell about your cry
When you shout I can’t hear
When scream your pain stabs even worse
Tell me about it and my head will stop aching
I hear voices in my head
