Whispers

There’s a beast that can’t be tamed
With its dark and evil ways
Making its home inside each one of us
The beast's attack is heard, not seen
It lies right behind my teeth
It can’t create, it only deconstructs

Have you heard the word?

We all whisper against our enemies
And we whisper against our friends
We murmur, breathing out murderous talk
Whispering wounds we cannot mend

I’ll say behind your back
What I won’t tell you to your face
I'm a double sided man, and you're the same
With the same mouth we bless and curse
Little Pharisees from our birth
Happy as long as there’s someone else to blame

Have you heard the word?

We all whisper against our enemies
And we whisper against our friends
We murmur, breathing out murderous talk
Whispering wounds we cannot mend

In reality, our duality is our tragic flaw
With our lips we commit the greatest sins of all

We all whisper against our enemies
And we whisper against our friends
Oh, we murmur, breathing out murderous talk
Whispering wounds we cannot mend
Whispering wounds we cannot mend
