Voices of Terror
voices of terror
they bring horror
Destroy you and leave you hollow
destroy you from deep,
deep like in your bone marrow
voices of terror
they confuse me like chemistry
they remind me of my incapability
to make me loose my identity
success and bright future
to them is just fantasy
voices of terror
i wake up in the middle of the night
hearing my parents voices
to open my eyes to reality
torealise that they are not there
voices of terror
open wounds that have healed ages ago
voices of terror i hear them
you hear them we all hear them
they are suicidal,homicidal
we say they are natural
they tell me to over dose pills
jump of the hill
go to a restaurant and runaway
without paying the bill
and my own soul to kill
voices of terror
they remind me of the possibility
that any day i could receive a call
that im no longer needed in varsity premises
due to my inability to pay tuition fees
voices of terror
they oppose my mission
my vision to change the world
voices of terror
they bring horror
they leave you hollow and shallow
they tell me daily
that there might be no tomorrow
cause life is something we borror
