[Verse 1]
Who am I, is this me?
Am I one or thirteen?
I've gone cold, hard to deal
Used to stand where I kneel

[Chorus]
Everybody listen
Voices in my head
Everybody listen
Does yours say what mine says?

[Verse 2]
I want more, than I need
I don't know what is real

[Chorus]
Everybody listen
Voices in my head
Everybody listen
Does yours say what mine says?

[Chorus]
Anytime I listen
Voices in my head
Everybody listen
Does yours say what mine says?

[Bridge]
Whispering of names, faces
Uniforms I've worn
And all that is gone
Always climbing
To fall down again
Holding onto everything
It's not what it seems

[Verse 4]
I've been told dreaming's free
Think I'll go back to sleep

[Chorus]
Everybody listen
Voices in my head
Everybody listen
Does yours say what mine says?
Anytime I listen
Voices in my head
Everybody listen
Does yours say what mine says?

[Outro]
Calling out the names, faces
Uniforms I've worn
And all that is gone
Always climbing
To fall down again
Holding onto everything
It's not what it seems

Alice in Chains are a Seattle-based rock band. They rose to international fame in the early 1990s as part of the ‘grunge’ movement. They are one of the most critically and commercially acclaimed acts of the 90s. Their first 3 studio albums all went multi-platinum and they have received 8 Grammy nominations for Best Hard Rock performance (sadly, never winning once).

Their unique sound comes from the harmonized vocals of co-founders Layne Staley and Jerry Cantrell, as showcased in some of their biggest songs like “No Excuses” from Jar of Flies, “Angry Chair” from Dirt and “Again” from the self-titled album. Cantrell also serves as the primary songwriter and guitarist of the band.

The band was never restricted to grunge. Cantrell believes it to be heavy metal; and indeed a lot of modern heavy metal bands cite Alice in Chains as an influence, including Metallica for Death Magnetic.
