Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I was standin' on the edge
I long for a new beginning
But I couldn't look down
No, I couldn't look down
I'm a coward
[Verse 2]
A million voices screamed in my head
And I felt sure that I would give in
So why couldn't I now?
Why couldn't I now?
Your voice was louder
[Verse 3]
But by design, God gave me feelings
And by design, they shall not kill
But when the noises overwhelm me
I feel sure that they will
[Verse 4]
Oh, liberation
Comes in whatever form to save me
I hit bottom
Then the whisper comes
You'll whisper in the breeze
A whisper that I needed
Quiet words soothe the hurt
Whisperer
[Verse 5]
And though I struggle through the days now
It helps to know that you are listening
So I'll just wait it out
I'll wait this out
By the hour
[Verse 6]
But by design, God gave me feelings
And by design, they shall not kill
But when the noises overwhelm me
I feel sure that they will
[Verse 7]
Oh, liberation
Comes in whatever form to save me
I hit bottom
Then the whisper comes
You'll whisper in the breeze
A whisper that I needed
Quiet words soothe the hurt
Whisperer
