Voices in my head shouting their pain

While everyone around me is taking the blame

I hear their crying, I shed their tears

I've been rolling the dice for so many years



Voices, what do you want of me

Voices, which way do I turn

Voices, nightmares and mind games

Put down on paper for rock and roll puppets to laugh at



Jailers of passion on a one way street

Only mirrored reflections of people I meet

So turn on the noise hit yourself in the face

Well I've got the card to beat your ace



Voices, what do you want of me

Voices, which way do I turn

Voices, nightmares and mind games

Put down on paper for rock and roll puppets to laugh at



Temptations all around me

But I've got no choice

Emotions of an animal

On a tightened lead

Time is a circle on a telephone

I hear it ringing but I'm not at home

Problems are shallow so don't look back

Black and white checkmate

I won so hows that



Voices, what do you want of me

Voices, which way do I turn

Voices, nightmares and mind games

Put down on paper for rock and roll puppets to laugh at
