Whisper

Always creeping 'round the bend

Haunting me, my oldest friend

Drops in when I least expect

Hopes to get me in the end

Always creeping 'round the bend

Haunting me, my oldest friend

Drops in when I least expect

Hopes to get me in the end

Most of the time, I'm fine

Very few can tell

I can go about my day

I guess I hide it well

But every now and then, he comes around

Follows me where I live

Brings out the worst in me

Second-guessing everything

He takes away the will to do the things I like to do

Widening the empty space

As every color turns to gray

Yeah, I wish that he would go away

The fiend upon my shoulders

The whisper in my ears

Yeah, he makes it hard to face the day

Telling me that nothing really matters

Bringing me down with a single whisper

Always creeping 'round the bend

Haunting me, my oldest friend

Drops in when I least expect

Hopes to get me in the end

Don't know where he first came from

Or how he got so loud

All I know is he can't help speak up

When I get too proud

And every time I try to walk away

He finds a way to pull me in

Tells me lies, how I'm way past broken

Unless I listen to him

The whispers tell me how the ones I love

Would be better off without me

But that's when I stop

That's when I stop

Yeah, I wish that he would go away

The fiend upon my shoulders

The whisper in my ears

Yeah, he makes it hard to face the day

Telling me that nothing really matters

Bringing me down with a single whisper

Can't help question your own precision

Every move you make is the wrong decision

Can't see the prize with your tunnel vision

And it's gone

Yeah, I wish that he would go away

The fiend upon my shoulders

The whisper in my ears

Yeah, he makes it hard to face the day

Telling me that nothing really matters

Bringing me down with a single whisper
