Song Meaning of “Always Hearing Voices” by Gentleman Caller
This song is about grappling with the battle with mental health, and the inner turmoil that comes with it. The narrator finds themselves constantly ‘hearing voices’ that weaken their sense of self, and often keeps them from leading a fulfilling life. It paints a vivid picture of feeling overwhelmed and paralyzed with fear, left to just observe life from the sidelines.
The narrator longs for peace of mind and desperately washes away their worries in an attempt to see the world at its most beautiful. Yet, even when surrounded by friends and family the struggles they battle are ever present.
The chorus hints at a feeling of hopefulness, that some day this inner turmoil may be silenced. It’s an honest depiction of the journey to find peace of mind, and the reminder that we all have to keep moving forward.
