The Voice Inside Lyrics

Don't judge a book by it's sleeve
You know I heard that's once been said
I'm not the kind who's easely aggrieved
By the things that I have read

For my mother she once told me
You know you've gotta live your dreams
And i'll keep her words inside me
For all eternity it seems

I fought the pain somehow
I guess when others would surely drown
Well I'm not that kind of men
Who lets his guard fall down

For my father he once told me
Don't let them bring you down
And I've kept his words inside of me

I felt the pain within my heart
Still hold the memory deep inside
And i see it in a dream
When I close my eyes at night
Now the greatest gift of this life
They're the reason that I'm alive
I pray I'll never stop hearing the voice inside
