Hey now
Turn the music loud
Theres voices in my head
I need to drown them out

This for all the times that I felt like an embarrassment
When you're just a kid man how the fuck do you handle it?
I swear to God that growing up felt like an experiment
Of how much trauma I can handle without a therapist

Had my inner child dig a grave and I buried him
Deep enough to keep him from the weight he was carrying
The strength it took would be enough to kill a barbarian
But I'd do anything to hide the fear of abandonment

They never saw what lied behind the white picket fence
I locked myself inside a room and
Didn't leave it till I found a sixth sense
Had nobody I could talk to but invisible friends

That told me if I joined em they can put the pain to an end

Hey now
Turn the music loud
There's voices in my head
I need to drown them out (drown them out)

Nothing left to say now
Roll the windows down
Theres voices in my head
I need to drown them out (drown them out)

Ten years later and haven't found any fix
I'm looking in the mirror and jumping out of my skin
I tried every pill and seen every specialist
Tweakin' even when I'm sleeping I'm clenching both of my fists

I can't learn to relax and I don't know what to feel
I'm on the verge of collapse while I'm asleep at the wheel
Another knife in my back before last one will heal
I need something to distract me from the fact that its real

Is anybody even out there to hear this manifesto?
The only thing I'm hearing back is crickets and echoes
Me against the world so imma turn up these headphones
That's the only time I feel relief and I let go (let go)

Hey now
Turn the music loud
There's voices in my head
I need to drown them out (drown them out)

Nothing left to say now
Roll the windows down
There's voices in my head
I need to drown them out (drown them out)

Hey now
Turn the music loud
There's voices in my head
I need to drown them out

Nothing left to say now
Roll the windows down
There's voices in my head
I need to drown them out
