Lyrics[]

Start the day against the voices 
The ones that tell me that I’m wrong 
I hear them now 
Screaming their delusions 
I close my eyes and they’re gone

In my mind I hear the voices
In my mind I have my doubts
Burning fears, these ghosts and apparitions
Only a whisper could drown them out

If they ain’t singing 
They’re just talking 
Let them keep talking to themselves 
‘Cause everybody knows 
That the hardest war to fight 
Is the fight to be yourself 
When the voices try to turn you into someone else

Start the road against the voices 
I picked a path out in the woods 
I’ve made mistakes 
I’ve got the scars to prove them 
I’d change the past if I could

If they ain’t singing 
They’re just talking 
Let them keep talking to themselves 
‘Cause everybody knows 
The hardest war to fight 
Is a fight to be yourself 
When the voices try to turn you into someone else

I close my eyes and then they’re gone
