The voices take me up
And snakes come twist about
Tell me what this knife is for
And tell me how to cut them out
The voices give me love
And the voices sell me dear
But show me how to smash them up
And show me how to leave them here

And the darkness sings to me
And the poison bleeds me dry

Darkness, just throw it away
Darkness, six feet below just isn't a fix

The poison don't come cheap
And the voices don't come slow
But I can see a shot inside
And power rising six feet below
Some god give me strength to disbelieve
These voices and the things they preach
Some God give me strength to disbelieve
These voices bring the death of me

Darkness, just throw it away
Darkness, six feet below just isn't a fix

The voices take me up
And snakes come twist about
Tell me what this knife is for
And tell me how to cut them out
The voices give me love
And the voices sell me dear
But show me how to smash them up
And show me how to leave them here

Some god give me strength to disbelieve
These voices and the things they preach
Some God give me strength to disbelieve
These voices bring the death of me

And the voices sing to me
And the voices bleed me dry

Darkness, just throw it away
Darkness, six feet below just isn't a fix
