Hord Subdued Voices
A deathly hush reigns as I walk the streets A total absence of outside noise pollution Only seeming quiet places, I'm speechless Illusory silence My trembling voice inside echoes like a creeping sound drowned into the abyss Fighting against my stillness to resurface
Fixed stare on darkness of a stationary world Reduced to a silent and eerie contemplation Nothing emerging from dust I can't breathe a single word And call this bloody shambles a bloody shambles Desolation, devastation before my very eyes I can't break the silence and come out of my muted shell I'm wandering the streets like a lost soul I'm assailed with inner noises of the ancient world Intermingling sounds emerging in the depths of my being Funeral laments, Nuptial songs invade me and deafen me
Millions of voices resound in my hollow body Resonant memories of my humanity Despairing, popular songs Sirens hymns emerging from dark
What is that sound bursting out of myself A life instinct taking flight high in the air Endless moans escaping from me Brutal and deafening like the cry of a newborn dead But who are those hooded hordes screaming over and over inside my head I can't get rid of this cacophony I'm wandering the streets like a lost soul I'm assailed with inner noises of the ancient world Intermingling sounds emerging in the depths of my being
Millions of voices resound in my hollow body Resonant memories of my humanity Despairing, popular songs Sirens hymns emerging from dark
Voices bemoaning in my ears I can hear all these screams in my head
Subdued voices deafening me, deafening me
