Black Dog Lyrics

Voices shout

Voices scream

Never saying

What they mean

I've heard them all before

These little voices in my head

Gives me the urge to scream and shout

Make some noise to drown them out

They keep on whispering

In my ear

Until finally

Its all I hear

Now this Black Dog holds me hostage

Trapped beneath his mighty paws

And ignoring all my pleas

He brings me to my knees

When he snarls I start to falter

He growls and I get smaller

And I just can't shake the feeling

That I'm just not good enough

I'm just not good enough

I'm just not good enough

And I just can't shake this feeling

That I'll never measure up

He's snapping and he's snarling

And he's foaming at the mouth

And in the nights when I can't sleep

I'm always trying to keep

That old black dog to heel

I don't like the way

He makes me feel

Black dog knows he's got me

Where he wants me to be

And while he's running in my head

My heart and soul

Are full of dread

Voices shout

Voices scream

Never saying

What they mean

My feet can't touch the ground

My thoughts are spinning round

And I just can't shake the feeling

That I'm just not good enough

Just not good enough

Just not good enough

And I just can't shake the feeling

That I'll never measure up

Never measure up

Never measure up

I've heard them all before

These little voices in my head

Gives me the urge to scream and shout

Make some noise to drown them out

They keep on whispering

In my ear

Until finally,

It's all I hear

Voices shout

Voices scream

Never saying

What they mean

Voices shout

Voices scream

Never saying

What they mean
