Locked in the basement Where all bad boys and girls go Stripped of my dignity, left in the dark Why, I don't know. What did I do? Shadows are lurking about the room I want to scream but I'm scared to move Oh, God, I want to be free Wait, I can see A painted over window tightly shut Too high to reach But a scarlet cord is dangling above I'm pulling it down I can feel the air whirling all around Like rushing waters I am hearing sounds Shaping words that comfort me Voices in the wind They don't call me down, they call me friend They're telling me my life is to be lived Well, maybe I could Voices in the wind Such joy when they come rushing in They're whispering that beauty waits within Keep insisting deep inside I'm really good Now I've the key and I've got a light I'm going down Each step I take seems To rip through the dark With a deafening sound Such a difficult task So many questions I have to ask When I finally meet this shadow cast Who could they possibly be? The light shows the child rejected When she only wanted to please Out steps the woman Crippled by anger raging deep My God, they're me And then there's the guilt And the shame and the fear How many years we've been wasting here It's time for us to be free Voices in the wind They don't call me down, they call me friend They're telling me my life is to be lived I'm thinking now I could, uh-huh Voices in the wind Such joy when they come rushing in They're whispering that beauty waits within And suddenly deep inside I know I'm good The first seed of the longing for justice Blows through the soul like the wind Self-knowledge is of such importance That even if you were to be raised To the highest heavens I should not want you to stop Your cultivation of it Tend only to the birth in you And you will find all goodness All consolation, all delight All being and all truth God has placed his nature in you Wholly in fullness and power in beauty And goodness in nobility And ever manner of preciousness and honor You have made her little less than a God With glory and honor, You have crowned her Given her power over the works of Your hand Put all things under her feet God is everything, which is good And the goodness which everything has is God God looked upon everything He had made And it was very good Voices in the wind They don't call me down, they call me friend They're telling me my life is to be lived Now I know I could, whoa-whoa-whoa... Voices in the wind Such joy when they come rushing in They're whispering that beauty lives within They tell me I can win Voices in the wind They never call me down, they call me friend They're whispering that beauty lies within Finally, deep inside I know I'm good
