City Voices Lyrics
From the sound of approaching footsteps,
I got scared that it wasn't you.
I had heard about the thing that happened,
Still I hoped that it wasn't true.
But there in the dark,
Voices called out
Someone’s name.
Have you heard about the city voices?
Voices that tell you
Secrets?
Your eyes told of a million memories,
Your mouth spoke of a million things.
I said you were cool
You said no
I asked you why
You said:
"Don't trust the city voices,
Voices that fill you
with lies."
I got scared that it wasn't you.
I had heard about the thing that happened,
Still I hoped that it wasn't true.
Voices called out
Someone’s name.
Voices that tell you
Secrets?
Your mouth spoke of a million things.
I said you were cool
You said no
I asked you why
You said:
Voices that fill you
with lies."

I think this song is simply about insecurity around strangers and alienation that takes place in cities, where, ironically, people are so close to one another.
