Hide the sun
I will leave your face out of my mind
For you could not save yourself
A thousand voices howl in my head
You speak in tongues
And I see your face

If I could paint the sky

Stay away!
I'm hearing voices all the time
And they're not mine
I'm hearing voices
And they haunt me at night
I know you're gone
But I still hear you
Speaking in tongues
In those black out days
I see you all the time
