Anberlin - Hearing Voices Lyrics






I feel lost, conflicting thoughts course through
Clarity, she's gone, don't know a thing I thought I knew

Everyone wants to see Heaven
But no one wants to say goodbye
Everyone wants to see Heaven
But no one wants to die

Can't escape this feeling (fears are born inside)
Can't escape this feeling (how can I deny?)

I hear voices (voices) in my head
The choices (choices) I can't contend
I hear voices (voices) and they all know your name
They all know your name

Trapped inside a cell that I built myself
Felt so very beating, cold, dark, and lost

Everyone wants to know God
But they're afraid of what they'll find
Everyone wants to know God
But they want to live like he died

Can't escape this feeling (fears are born inside)
Can't escape this feeling (how can I deny?)

I hear voices (voices) in my head
The choices (choices) I can't contend
I hear voices (voices) and they all know your name
They all know your name

I built it all, I built it all around
I heard it call, it doesn't make a sound
Was in my hand and now I see believe
I hear you left, I know you're here with me

Can't escape this feeling (fears are born inside)
When the Spirit moves you (how can you deny?)

I hear voices (voices) in my head
Can't stand a ghost when the ghost's not dead
I hear voices (voices) and they all know your name
They all know your name

I hear voices (voices) in my head
The choices (choices) I can't contend
I hear voices (voices) and they all know your name
They all know your name

Anberlin Hearing Voices Comments
  1. B.... M....

    I remember when 107.9 The Fountain would play this song and Type Three. I miss that station. I love those songs.

  2. D.... B....

    This is their last good song. Their first three albums are masterpieces.

  3. K.... G....

    The Almost Hands

  4. D.... B....

    Knew it would always be a short-term break-up. You can't be this passionate about your music and just dissappear. I am so happy to have gotten to see you guys in Tampa recently :D

  5. Q.... P....

    Anberlin is amazing, I love music that sounds like this. If you like Anberlin you should check out the band "Red"

  6. S.... M....

    A master piece, no one can play any thing better than this.

  7. g.... ....

    Really want to hear them perform this song live.

  8. S.... M....

    Fullfilled with passion and enthusiasm. Love you boys

  9. L.... U....

    Luckily I got so see them in concert when they opened for Taking Back Sunday 2009 It was love at first listen. I love this song. His voice is one of kind ❤️ awesome performance they gave.

  10. J.... A....

    so much of Anberlins' music I can't stop hitting replay over and over. Been like that for years.

  11. J.... A....

    I was listening to this whole album in high school, way before it even came out.

  12. B.... W....

    Fun fact
    This song was inspired by bible.
    Depressing as fuck though

    B.... W....

    If you've ever read the scripture then it would become very evident that the gospel is not all sunshine and rainbows..

  13. T.... ....

    This reminds me of Coldplay - Paradise.
    Voices, Voices sounds the same as Para, Para

  14. L.... M....

    still love this song!

  15. s.... ....

    As a former 'JW'...
    This song is like someone reach inside me and read my heart.
    -I do feel lost
    -I do feel conflict
    -The clarity is gone
    I still hear voices...I still hear Jehovah he helped raise me and he will always be with me.
    -I can't escape this feeling.

    ~Thank you Anberlin for giving my conflict a name in this theme.~

    s.... ....

    +saquist They are Christian not Jehovah Witness.

    s.... ....

    @Darth Varsis
    ...and you're dense.

    s.... ....

    "jehovah" means "god of discord"
    it'd be better to call him yahweh, which means "I am that I am"

    s.... ....

    pretty sure Jehovah and Yahweh mean the same thing. both are translations of the tetragammaton YHWH; the original hebrew had no vowels, so it is debated today which pronunciation is correct (most scholars seem to lean towards Yahweh since there was no "j" sound in ancient hebrew). this is probably all really useless info. but i offered it anyway. ha! PS +saquist hope you keep finding clarity

  16. J.... P....

    "Everyone wants to see heaven, but no one wants so goodbye.
    Everyone wants to see heaven, but no one wants to die."

  17. A.... R....

    Missing Anberlin

  18. A.... N....

    Every one wants to see heaven, but no one wants to say goodbye, everyone wants to see heaven, but no one wants to die.........


    probably the best lyrics ever.

  19. R.... R....

    Godly could have been the name of this album

  20. B.... H....

    One of my favorite songs on this album!! Everything about it is perfect. i cant wait to see them at The Norva

  21. L.... M....

    Definitivamente Anberlin sera siempre Anberlin!!! ♥ :D :')

    L.... M....

    También los amo.. 😁

  22. M.... S....

    Me encanta

    M.... S....

    También los amo.. 😁

  23. K.... ....

    Man, this dude has such a great voice, listening to him is always a pleasure.

  24. 9.... ....

    It'd be awesome if you guys could check out my drum cover of this track! 

  25. s.... c....

    This is my favorite track from this album..love this band

  26. J.... M....

    ive always loved the lyrical content of Anberlin's songs. especially when they contain the subtle references to God and spirituality like this one. i'm not trying to say you have to listen to it this way, but for me personally it is what makes this song stand out and makes it one of my favorites of theirs for sure. i'm really gonna miss waiting for the next anberlin album!
     

  27. 3.... ....

    shout out to nathan. fucker.

  28. A.... F....

    Have been listening to this song non stop. I love it!

  29. R.... ....

    Even though I didn't discover them till 2008, this band has had a special place in my heart. Thanks for the music, Anberlin. Absolutely cannot wait to see you in November!

  30. n.... ....

    My heart races every time I listen to Anberlin. It's really unhealthy, but ah this song.

  31. K.... W....

    Never going to stop listening to this band.  This album is fucking awesome.

  32. N.... ....

    great album, truly out with a bang

  33. B.... B....

    Just barely missed my top 5 favorite songs off the album but I still think this is a great song. This song can easily get you pumped up for a major event especially considering the fact that this song has what is in my opinion the most epic chorus on the entire album. This song reminds me of what it would be like to have schizophrenia and as the song says "hear voices in my head" no offense whatsoever to those who have schizophrenia.

  34. A.... G....

    Best song off of Lowborn

  35. J.... t....

    Just had this conversation with a friend who is in hospice...cancer... 6yrs ignored his illness.  Recent conversation revolves around reunion with friends and  going to a better place... thanks for sharing.

  36. C.... ....

    Saw these guys at Warped a few days ago. His voice is incredible live. Definitely the cleanest sounding band I heard all day

  37. M.... D....

    #2 on the album for me behind Losing it All and right in front of Velvet Covered Brick

  38. B.... H....

    I've already lost count of how many times I've listened to this song in just the past several days since I first heard it. Everything about this song is so sick in the best way. The intro, the chorus that I can't resist banging my head to, the lyrics, this song is pretty much perfect. <3 I hope the rest of 'Lowborn' is as good as these three singles and I bet it will be, because Anberlin. :) I can't wait to see what they've done with total creative freedom.

    B.... H....

    true true

    B.... H....

    Definitely my favorite track from a truly great album.

  39. a.... ....

    thank you Anberlin for making my life what it is.
    For inspiring me and bringing love into my soul.

    You will be greatly missed but I know the passion lives on in your music! 
    <3

  40. R.... S....

    Soo beautiful!  Been a fan of these guys since I was barely getting into music, bummed this is their final album.  Live on Anberlin <3

  41. B.... H....

    This song is so sick, in the best way. Stephen's voice, and those instrumentals! The opening and the chorus give me chills. And of course that lyric, "Everyone wants to know God but they're afraid of what they'll find, everyone wants to know God but they want to live like he died." Brilliant stuff from my favorite band. <3 I'm going to miss them so much.

  42. B.... H....

    This song gives me chills, like so much of Anberlin's music does. Hello, repeat button, my old friend. I will cry if I don't get to see Anberlin on a headline tour before they call it quits. (I saw (and met) them at Warped Tour in 2008.) I'm thinking they will always be my favorite band. If anyone hopes to take their spot, they've got a tough act to follow.

  43. k.... ....

    AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I FREAKING LOVE!!!!!!!!!!!!

  44. E.... C....

    This is what old school Anberlin was like. Love this track

  45. M.... ....

    so underrated and raw. we gonna miss you anberlin. Thank you

  46. G.... ....

    Probably the best song on the album.

    G.... ....

    It hasn't even released yet how would you know?

    G.... ....

    There was a YouTube leak briefly.

    G.... ....

    Oh gotcha

  47. C.... A....

    Cannot WAIT until I can hear the rest of this album.

  48. j.... ....

    so good.

  49. t.... ....

    I would go out any buy the whole album just for this one song.

  50. T.... L....

    I'll miss you guys so much. :(

  51. T.... ....

    So bittersweet. I wish you guys all the best, and thanks for all you've done for me with your music. You have no idea how much.

    Thank you Anberlin

  52. T.... ....

    Even if they just stopped touring and just wrote and published new music I would be happy.

  53. S.... G....

    Quintessential Anberlin right here!  

  54. J.... B....

    Not one bad album put out, ever, by these guys. New Surrender might be seen as their lowest album, but seriously those songs are epic in their own rights. 

    J.... B....

    I love New Surrender (:

    J.... B....

    The Resistance may be the best opening song at a concert I've ever heard

    J.... B....

    @BournGamer yesss. So epic.

    J.... B....

    @BournGamer The concert of theirs I went to last year they opened with Little Tyrants, was pretty epic too

  55. h.... ....

    final album? whyyyyyy?

  56. J.... H....

    I got to see Anberlin in concert in Albuquerque and they were amazing... My favorite band of all time and I am very sad to see them go. They were all down to earth and really cool guys. Them leaving is like someone close to you dying for me... I don't know what I will do without them when they are completely done but im privileged to have seen them regardless.

  57. T.... P....

    You guys were the "Metallica" for me. Always amazing albums and never a let down during a live concert! All these "old" fans wishing it sounded more like Cities. Well... they aren't fans. I'll never forget the Never Take Friendship Personal album. It is truly one of the best albums of all time.

    T.... P....

    I'm an old fan and I'm taking your side in this one: NTFP was one of their best albums. 

    T.... P....

    Wait...what? So, because I wanted Anberlin to make another album like Cities, I'm not a fan? That album came out during a low point in my life, and no other album-not any other one from them, nor anyone else-has ever touched me on such a personal level. This band changed my life through that album. Who are you to say I'm not a true Anberlin fan because of that? That's ever so slightly self-righteous, don't you think?
    As it stands, it's not like I don't love their current style, it's simply my experience that Cities is the most complete, emotionally and spiritually driving album they've ever made. Don't act like your opinion trumps mine.

    T.... P....

    Yeah. You're a bit of a dick, @Timothy Phillis.
    And I feel you with that, @Daniel Pitts. If one album means something more to you then the rest, then you should be free to feel that. Being emotionally connected to a band is what MAKES a fan. So you keep doing what youre doing, buddy. =3
    Though personally, I found all their albums to mean something seperate to me at different times of my life. Ive been a fan since the beginning and have never once complained about them changing styles. [never about linkin park either.] Would people have enjoyed Leonardo Da Vinci if all he did was paint the Mona Lisa from different angles and never worked on The Last Supper [and given us such amusing controversy as The Da Vinci Code] or all his theoretical robotics and mechanics blueprints [which inspired the very first aircraft to be made], And the Vitruvian Man [which is still used in medicine today], etc etc? An artist needs freedom to send out the messages they want to send, and each album means something different to everyone. I've always managed to take something out of each one, so to me personally, each album is just as powerful and epic to me as the others.
    This new album is yet to find a place within me but I'm sure it will soon. =3

    T.... P....

    My favorite is NTFP, that's when I started listening to them and it has great memories attached to it as well.

    T.... P....

    @Andrew Knecht
    likewise.

  58. S.... t....

    Man can't get enough of this song. "Everyone wants to know God, but they're afraid of what they'll find, Everyone wants to know God, but they want to live like he died" Deep! 

  59. t.... ....

    I love the drums on this song!

  60. G.... A....

    Anberlin at its finest <3

  61. c.... ....

    Dang!! I have just found another song to put on replay... Strange though, I've always said as just something random that I hear the voices, now an amazing song to go with it, perfection!!

  62. P.... V....

    Awesome

  63. V.... A....

    I'll miss you Anberlin!

  64. S.... ....

    You guys are fucking  awesome

  65. d.... ....

    Going out on a high.... no better way. I'll miss them but respect them even more for this!

  66. D.... V....

    I love it
    I hope they shoot a music video for it

  67. D.... V....

    I think this will be the best song on the album

  68. A.... B....

    Love this song

  69. D.... ....

    Great song!

  70. S.... M....

    Pretty sure I just experienced an earection,

    S.... M....

    naw definitely eargasms!

  71. A.... A....

    Ahh, this is bittersweet....

  72. D.... L....

    2002- Forever, you guys will always have my heart.

  73. V.... ....

    Dang, this is so good!

  74. s.... ....

    I really hope i get to see them before the end of the year.

  75. N.... M....

    This song rembember me Paradise of Coldplay.

  76. P.... ....

    That Christian McAlhaney though....

  77. A.... C....

    So amazing, as expected. I can't wait for the album! I'm really going to miss this band. :c

  78. a.... ....

    This song.... I've only listened to it once but I can already tell it's going to be a new favorite. The lyrics perfectly describe my life right now. Wow. I'm going to miss my favorite band.

  79. C.... ....

    Good song I find it better than stranger ways.

  80. C.... S....

    The replay button better be ready, it's gonna be a looooooonnnnggggg night

  81. M.... ....

    This song is epic!

    Lyrics:

    I feel lost, conflicting thoughts course through
    Clarity, she's gone, don't know a thing I thought I knew

    Everyone wants to see Heaven
    But no one wants to say goodbye
    Everyone wants to see Heaven
    But no one wants to die

    Can't escape this feeling (fears are born inside)
    Can't escape this feeling (how can I deny?)

    I hear voices (voices) in my head
    The choices (choices) I can't contend
    I hear voices (voices) and they all know your name
    They all know your name

    Trapped inside a cell that I built myself
    Failed so very beating, cold, dark, and lost

    Everyone wants to know God
    But they're afraid of what they'll find
    Everyone wants to know God
    But they want to live like he died

    Can't escape this feeling (fears are born inside)
    Can't escape this feeling (how can I deny?)

    I hear voices (voices) in my head
    The choices (choices) I can't contend
    I hear voices (voices) and they all know your name
    They all know your name

    I built it all, I built it all right
    I had it all, ..
    Was in my hand and now I see believe
    I hear you left, I know you're here with me

    Can't escape this feeling (fears are born inside)
    When this feelings moves you (how can I deny?)

    I hear voices (voices) in my head
    Can't stand a ghost when the ghost's not dead
    I hear voices (voices) and they all know your name
    They all know your name

    I hear voices (voices) in my head
    The choices (choices) I can't contend
    I hear voices (voices) and they all know your name
    They all know your name

  82. H.... F....

    I hear voices in my head... and they're all Stephen Christian's!

    H.... F....

    Hahaha!

  83. J.... L....

    anberlins last second single....

  84. S.... W....
