drowning in sound from the liberty bells
when the dragon was slain
i just chased something else
and the words i can hear
through the noise are just echoes of my winded voice
roaming around i'm still gasping for air
took the craziness out
but there's plenty to spare
pull the turn away from the stage
but the script must be missing a page
too many thoughts too many words
when i just need to feel at ease
too many wounds too many cries
too many people to appease
too many roads too many doors
too many locks too many keys
so i'm begging could you whisper just a little louder
please
exercise stay in line
don't look back look divine
given your badges to tell you
if you complain they'll expel you
never cry never take cover
no one wants a disturbed lover
didn't your mom used to tell you to smile
tell you to go down in style
drowning in sound and the tide's coming in
i lost sight of the show of the places
i've been thought that you would provide destination
maybe i'm just on probation
standing my ground but the world is so loud
and the road to the mask
cause it's almost worn out
i know i ask for too much
but please stay touch
too many thoughts too many words
why not just need to feel at ease
too many wounds too many cries
too many people to appease
too many roads too many doors
too many locks
too many keys
so i'm begging
could you whisper just a little louder please
don't give up on me
don't give up
whisper to me lord please don't give up on me
don't give up
whisper to me
don't give up on me
don't give up
whisper to me love please don't give up on me
don't give up
too many thoughts
too many words
and i just need to feel at ease
too many rules
too many cries
too many people to appease
too many roads too many doors
too many locks
too many keys
so i'm begging
could you whisper just a little louder please
