Cover art for Voices lyrics by Pagoda

Well, I got these lyrics off of their website, www.pagodaonline.com but listening to the song they seem a bit wrong in parts, but not enough to cause a real problem.

This song is kind of confusing...I'm not getting much of a meaning besides he may be going crazy and hearing voices in his head. He thinks that they're real, but when he tells people what he hears, they tell them they don't hear anything. Then he tries to brush it off by saying, "Oh, yeah, I know, I guess it was just something in my head, no big deal." But some of the lines throw me: "I wasn't born with a silver spoon/That was then but I got one now/This ritual will kill me soon" Maybe it's about his rise to fame? Or maybe, because I'm reading The Silence of the Lambs, he's a serial killer? I have no clue just making wild guesses. The serial killer one could work because a lot of them say they hear voices telling them to do things, and many are apathetic ("They say you're not here/I'm not/To feel no fear/It's just my sickness/You're nothing you're no one/You don't exist") Serial killers seperate themselves from their victims many times by pretending or making themselves believe that the victims aren't even human, or "real" and instead treating them as if they were dolls or something.

That kinda seems like a crazy theory for this song, but it's an idea.
