The Voices Warned Me by Purple Prose
They said look what's ahead of you
Stare in the eyes of your fear
The world is a cold rock of greed
That the sky wets with tears
They said too bad if shining
Treasures never smiled on us
Asking time for answers
Is so dangerous
The voices warned me
They persisted
The voices warned me
I resisted
They said don't pray for too much
You might enjoy what you get
Luck hates the ones she loves
And she might love you next
Never mind if unknown pleasures
Were not sent to us
Asking life for answers
Can be dangerous
The voices warned me
I resisted
The voices warned me
They persisted
The voices warned me
I resisted
The voices warned me
They insisted
Walk in line, see it through
Never win, never lose
Hold your breath
Kill your needs
Live like death, on your knees
No point counting bruises
Today's where the truth is
And that's why I'm living here
The voices warned me
I resisted
The voices warned me
They insisted
The voices warned me
They persisted
The voices warned me
But I, I, I resisted
