I don't know how to say
All the things that I need to say
I been dying to run, but I can't get away
They tell me I ought to know
How to get up and go
Search the sky for the sun, but the clouds are grey
You don't know the words
But still you're trying to sing along
When the night is calling
You know you gotta take it on
It's hard to win
When nobody wanna listen
But voices carry
Voices carry
It's hard to change
When everyone wanna stay the same
But voices carry
Voices carry
Where do I gotta go?
Who's gonna free my soul?
When I am half-mast on the flagpole? (On the flagpole)
Whether you like it or not
This little house is all we got
And we can change the locks to keep out the cold
You don't know the words
But still you gotta sing along
It's hard to win
When nobody wanna listen
But voices carry
Voices carry
It's hard to change
When everyone wanna stay the same
But voices carry
Voices carry
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, voices carry
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
How many times does it take to hear me?
How loud now until it comes out clearly?
I want you to come with me, can you
Hold me higher? And I'll take your hand too
How many times does it take to hear me?
How loud now until it comes out clearly?
I want you to come light the fire
Hold me and we'll go higher
It's hard to win
When nobody wanna listen
But voices carry (voices carry)
Voices carry
It's hard to change
Everyone wanna stay the same
But voices carry (voices carry)
Voices carry (voices carry)
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, voices carry
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, voices carry
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, voices carry
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
