Heard My Own Voice and Didn’t Recognize It (Remix)

I spoke out loud just to feel the sound, But the words came back all turned around Didn’t feel like mine, didn’t sit just right — Like a stranger whisperin’ late at night

She once said my voice could calm a storm, Now it breaks like glass that’s barely warm I said her name, but it cracked apart — Guess even echoes lose their heart

Heard my own voice and didn’t recognize it Like it ran off with the things I hid It used to carry truth and grit — Now it stumbles like a flame half-lit If I’m still me, I can’t advise it — Heard my own voice and didn’t recognize it

I read a note I know I wrote, But every line just missed the throat My laugh don’t sound like I recall, And prayers I prayed don’t land at all

I called for help, the wind replied, Said "Son, you already died inside" There’s songs I sang beneath this sky — Now even silence asks me why

Heard my own voice and didn’t recognize it It fell apart where the pain disguised it I talk like someone halfway gone, Stuck between the dusk and dawn I wear my past, but I revise it — Heard my own voice and didn’t recognize it

Ain’t gone, ain’t whole — Just something stuck inside the soul

Heard my own voice and didn’t recognize it Like a story time refused to legit No mirror speaks, no name replies, Just empty boots and yellow skies If I once knew, I can’t reprise it — Heard my own voice and didn’t recognize it
