Voices Lyrics - Metamodern Sounds In Country Music - Sturgill Simpson

There's a voice that I can hear sometimes out here on the mountain 

When it's dark and the sky is pouring acid like a fountain 

Memories like coal dust stain the window of my eyes 

So ask them no more questions they can't sell you no more lies 

I hear voices all around me in society's depression 

Over and over they all recite their first impression 

The rivers are all crying but the ocean cannot speak 

Until her waters crash into uncharted shores so dark and bleak 

How I wish somebody'd make these voices go away 

Seems they're always talking but they don't have much to say 

A picture's worth a 1000 words but a word ain't worth a dime 

And we all know they'll go on talking til the end of time 

Don't call it a sign of the times when it's always been this way 

Voices behind curtains forked tongues that have no name 

They plot their wicked schemes setting fate for all mankind 

With evil that can fill God's pretty skies with clouds that burn and blind

How I wish somebody'd make these voices go away 

Seems they're always talking but they don't have much to say 

A picture's worth a 1000 words but a word ain't worth a dime 

And we all know they'll go on talking til the end of time
