Your Voice, It Hurts Me

Your voice, it hurts me
	Every time I hear it I feel like I need to be rushed away on a gurney
Why won’t you be quiet? -All you do is scream-
I try to muffle you with my own shouting 
         I’ve even tried hitting my head against a beam 
But you’ll never be quiet, not until I die

Sometimes the mind seems like it is on a party line, so try listening to a different voice . . . . .
