[00:00.00]Voices - Sturgill Simpson
[00:00.60]There's a voice that I can hear
[00:02.47]Sometimes out here on the mountain
[00:05.91]When it's dark and the sky
[00:07.98]Is pouring acid like a fountain
[00:12.45]Memories like coal dust stain
[00:15.29]The window of my eyes
[00:17.61]So ask them no more questions
[00:19.52]They can't sell you no more lies
[00:27.51]I hear voices all around me in society's depression
[00:33.65]Over and over they all recite their first impression
[00:39.58]The rivers are all crying
[00:42.39]But the ocean cannot speak
[00:44.84]Until her waters crash into uncharted shores
[00:49.36]So dark and bleak
[00:55.71]How I wish somebody'd make these voices go away
[01:00.82]Seems they're always talking
[01:02.37]But they don't have much to say
[01:07.16]A picture's worth a 1000 words
[01:09.55]But a word ain't worth a dime
[01:12.75]And we all know they'll go on talking till the end of time
[01:38.37]Don't call it a sign of the times
[01:41.48]When it's always been this way
[01:44.55]Curtains voices behind forked tongues that have no name
[01:50.87]They plot their wicked schemes setting fate for all mankind
[01:56.31]With evil that can fill God's pretty skies
[01:59.29]With clouds that burn and blind
[02:09.88]How I wish somebody'd make these voices go away
[02:14.97]Seems they're always talking but they ain't got much to say
[02:21.38]A picture's worth a 1000 words but a word ain't worth a dime
[02:26.99]And we all know they'll go on talking till the end of time
