Squeeze - There Is A Voice Lyrics






There is a voice within us all
That says destruct
Go to the wall
And you can't choose when this voice speaks
Deep in our souls
This voice will sleep
There is a voice within us all
That says destruct
And you will crawl
From your own pit into the deep
Where you will sink
Until it speaks

Each day is a night
Then your lifetime is gone

There is a voice inside us all
That says rebuild
And when it's called
All that is wrong can be put right
There in your soul
To change your life
Each day's a hope each day's a prayer
That I might build
And I'll repair
The parts in me that may have slipped
Deep in my soul
When I lose my grip

And there's ropes and chains
Slowing me as I walk
I feel hope through pain
As the road ahead forks
To the left and the right
To the right and the wrong

    Wow! Tilbrook must have been very young and happy not to have understood the lyrics.  Subconsciously he must have to understood to have been able to fit the mood, not to mention singing with that feeling.  Thank you for all of your awesome Squeeze Posts!

    @sonicfrogdotnet not really that hard. The chords used to be on the old squeezefan site but i just checked and they have been taken down. Send me your email address and I will scan them in for you. Its a ripping song to play because of the driving rhythm and resonance and wonderful tilly chords.

    @Mikeya85 I've been playing bass for 25 years (see my post above), and only recently took up guitar. Is this hard to play?

  8. J.... F....

    @sonicfrogdotnet agree with all you say......

  9. J.... F....

    brilliant brilliant brilliant..I could go on..........

    As a bass player, I can tell you some of the work done by Keith Wilkinson on this album is nothing short of fantastic. But the real genius in the song, and the album, is Diffords lyrics. Because of that, Play is one of my all time favorite albums.

    I mean, come on, who else could pull a lyric like this: "A very acidic tongue, waggled in her head, uagh uagh...."

  12. J.... F....
