Music from a past blasts from a stereo, drown out the voices,

The unidentifiable, ununderstandable voices swarming my head,

Smothering inner voice, a pillow would a newborn's cries,

Body attempts to translate unexplainable pain,

It hurts,

It hurts,

It hurts,

My parents won’t hear my babbling,

They can’t hear the voices in my head,

Blind to the reason tears are pouring from my eyes,

Are as confusing to them as the voices me,

Play something to ease my mind,

Rock, country, pop,

Just make it stop,

Go away,

Go away,

Go away,

Voices drown to music’s flood,

Eyes blink away the dark, to awaken to light,
