There Is A Voice

Squeeze · Play [1991]

There is a voice within us all



That says destruct, go to the wall



And you can't choose when this voice speaks



Deep in our souls this voice will sleep



There is a voice within us all



That says destruct and you will crawl



From your own pit into the deep



Where you will sink until it speaks



Each day is a night



Then your lifetime is gone



There is a voice inside us all



That says rebuild and when it's called



All that is wrong can be put right



There in your soul to change your life



Each day's a hope, each day's a prayer



That I might build and I'll repair



The parts in me that may have slipped



Deep in my soul when I lose my grip



And there's ropes and chains



Slowing me as I walk I feel hope through pain



As the road ahead forks



To the left and the right to the right and the wrong
