Beelzebub
There are a hundred voices screaming in my head
They tell me things that happen when you're dead
Their faces are blank and their decibels raises higher
The voices harmonize and suddenly it's the sound of a choir
They exist in the minds of all men but are hidden away
Because it's a blemish in an otherwise perfect display
But the stain always manages to grow in size
Before long, the problem will be too big to hide
The wiser and older men try to warn us
But we're too high on pride to hear the things they discuss
So our lives are spent wasting away to the sound
Hopped up on drugs to keep the noise down
Listen to us, the voices always whisper
But if we lean in, our skin turns to blisters
The sound lures us in with sweet covenants
Of nicer places with better governments
The words are new but the voice is from an ancient power
It comes from deep underground and it makes us all cower
It wears you down until you hit your lowest level,
Then it asks you to make a deal, a deal with the devil
