Squeeze - There Is A Voice lyrics

(difford/tilbrook) 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
