Can you hear it whispering? Can you hear it whispering? At the back of everything? Can you hear it whispering? Out of the dark, into the light Looking for a way around it When it calls we won't hear We will shout and we'll drown it out At the back of everything Like a constant threat Can you hear it whispering? Can you hear it whispering? At the back of everything So we sit around And we make a joke About the way things are And how it won't get anything
