Verse 1 There’s someone whispering under my bed, Counting every word inside my head. The walls have eyes, the ceiling knows, They watch me everywhere I go. The television calls me by my name, The radio is playing my private pain. I know they’re talking, I know they see, There’s nowhere left to hide from me. Pre-Chorus And when I close my eyes, The whole world comes alive. A thousand voices, one by one, Telling me I have to run. Chorus The voices know my name, They tell me who to blame. They say the night is coming, They say I’m not the same. I’m standing in a crowded room, But no one sees my fear. They say there’s nothing wrong with me, But everything is here. Verse 2 A woman in the mirror looks like me, But sometimes she is someone I can’t see. She moves her lips before I speak, She knows the things I’m scared to think. There’s poison in the water, There’s a stranger at the door. I heard him breathing yesterday, I know he came before. And every thought that enters in Feels planted deep beneath my skin. I fight the darkness every night, But I don’t know which side is right. Chorus The voices know my name, They tell me who to blame. They say the night is coming, They say I’m not the same. I’m standing in a crowded room, But no one sees my fear. They say there’s nothing wrong with me, But everything is here. Bridge Then someone sits beside me, And doesn’t tell me I’m insane. She doesn’t fight the monsters, She just stays with me through the rain. She says, “You don’t have to believe every voice you hear.” “You don’t have to face the darkness all alone.” And for the first time in a long, long while, I hear something underneath the noise. My own voice. Final Chorus The voices know my name, But they don’t own my soul. They may return tomorrow, But now I know where I belong. I’m learning which thoughts are mine, I’m learning how to breathe. The night is still a frightening place, But there’s a dawn I haven’t seen. Outro So let them whisper in the shadows, Let them knock against my door. I am more than what they tell me. I am still here. I am still here. And tomorrow… I will open the door.
