Hearing Voices
Whispers in Stillness: Unveiling the Silent Symphony of Galaxie 500's 'Hearing Voices'Lyrics
Your lips ain't movin
Your lips are not moving
Your body's still
Your body is still
But voices are talkin somewhere
Voices are audible from somewhere
I hear a jukebox
I hear a jukebox playing
French fries and beer
There's an atmosphere of French fries and beer
And people are talkin somewhere
People are conversing from somewhere
And I know there's no one home
I am aware there's no one at home
But I won't put down the phone
Despite knowing no one's there, I refuse to hang up the phone
I can't think where I should be
I am unable to decide where I should be
I search the kitchen
I'm searching through the kitchen
Put my ear to the wall
Placing my ear against the wall to listen
I look in the freezer again
I'm checking the freezer once more
Sometimes a notion
Sometimes an idea or feeling arises suddenly
Swells like the ocean
This idea or feeling grows intensely
Then I can't think where I should be
Then I am unable to determine where I should be
And I know there's no one home
I am aware there's no one at home
But I won't put down the phone
Despite knowing no one's there, I refuse to hang up the phone
I can't think where I should be
I am unable to decide where I should be
