Britton Deuel - Whispers Lyrics

Whispers in the dark are giving colors to my inhibitions
When all they were before was black and white
I fell under their spell again
Frozen in time in the wilderness
Building walls as tall as forest flames

Well the silhouettes in the hall have spoken
But the language of the dead is broken
If only I could understand their faults
Then I wouldn't have to be here guessing
Wearing out a tired old lesson
Holding out for what remains unsaid

No matter what I try to do
The conversations never stop
Talking me out of leaving home
Because the doors might all be locked

There's only one way out of this house
I just need another minute to put the fire out
I gotta kick the habit because I'm not getting far
I'm 10,000 feet above the water
And still buried beneath the stars

You were always the pretty one
Shedding light on the golden sun
When all I was before was a waste of time
All I asked of you was simple
To hold your torch up to my candle
So I could feel the warmth from both sides

No matter what I try to do
All the sirens sound the same
Echoing over and over
They're not easy to escape

There's only one way out of this town
I just need another minute to put the fire out
I gotta kick the habit because I'm not getting far
I'm 10,000 feet above the water
And still buried beneath the stars
Still buried beneath the stars
