Voices and people in highways I hear a song in the darkest sounds Trapped on the radio, I played every time that I'm going down Momma saying: Oh, my Lord, tell me, boy, what have you done? They ask me what I'm waiting for The night has only just begun Oh, when you turned your back on me I made that my history The more I learn the less I bleed Till the lights go out, I'll sing I want to go, I want to go hide Where the stars are as close as the sky Till the lights go out on me Till I write my symphony Dark is a light when I'm sideways I took the knives and I've made my crown They say keep it for the radio for times sake I'm so proud of breaking it down Momma saying: Oh, my Lord, tell me, boy, what have you done? They ask me what I'm waiting for The night has only just begun Oh, when you turned your back on me I made that my history The more I learn the less I bleed Till the lights go out, I'll sing I want to go, I want to go hide Where the stars are as close as the sky Till the lights go out on me Till I write my symphony I want to go, I want to go hide I want to go, I want to go hide Till the lights go out on me Till I write my symphony I took all your judgement, look at what I made I made music from the silence I made symphonies from pain Since a child, I was born for this Ain't nothing you could say This for all my generation From the one they cast away, ay I took all your judgement Look at what I made I made music from the silence I made symphonies from pain Since a child, I was born for this Ain't nothing you could say This for all my generation From the one they cast away Oh, when you turned your back on me I made that my history The more I learn the less I bleed Till the lights go out, I'll sing I want to go, I want to go hide Where the stars are as close as the sky Till the lights go out on me Till I write my symphony
