Listen & view Johnathan Rice - Quiet Hushed Voices lyrics & tabs

When I was young I mimicked my father
I followed his shadow in the street
I would lie awake for hours
Listening to Flow's (?) Creek

I was hynotized by his deep voice
And the way him and my mother would speak
In quiet hushed voices
In words I don't understand
Talking well into the warm dark night
Touching my head with their hands

Now I'm older
And I'm affected
I'm not as genuine as I let on

And I lie to her like it's nothing at all
Some call it leading her on
Well we talk late at night
I tell her I might be in love

I say anything to make her head swim
To help me rise above

These quiet hushed voices
These words I don't understand
Talking well into the warm dark night
Holding my head in my hands

They say guilt can penetrate
The thickest walls
I say it keeps me ?
It'll get me through
Another day
It'll keep them
From going

Now I'm a shadow of my former self
And I make my own way
I can't seem to get my head
To settle
Or to keep my mind
From straying

And I remember back
To days past
I never had a clue
Ever since I could think or speak
All I knew

Were these quiet hushed voices
These words I don't understand
Words I shout into the ? night
Holding my head in my hand

Well these quiet hushed voices
These words I don't understand
Words I shout into the ? night
Holding my head in my hand

Quiet hushed voices
Quiet hushed voices
Quiet hushed voices
