Adam Greguš Very straightforward album full of strong melodies, meaningful and relatable lyrics. Tiny Voices follows up on their previous history, however with more layers, nooks and crannies to be discovred throughout listening to the album on repeat. The first listen hints the album is an absolute blast but there is much more to the album with followings listens. Favorite track: It's Been A While Introspection!.

I lost hope I know, yeah I've been down I've been chasing all the ways to find an inch of it in every stand I needed to, If there's none why would I bother caring for more than what's mine? Just a crutch I know, cracked all along 'Cause a selfish fertile ground is tough to break apart if there's no point So I've been down, finding out I was wrong I lost the fuel I thought I needed to fight But there's no hope right now, the one I had Mislead all along, I thought we had a shot at tearing it down The world we live in won't go away Choking off our hopes of seeing it break I feel let down right now, hope let me down The violence all around keeps on crushing the least ambition There's no bailing out, there's no giving up The path hasn't changed but the fuel has now
2.
I think I missed the paper, I missed the pen missed being forced to sort the mess that's in my head Cause I play well taught, I get a few ears It's always easier to stick to the big picture I ride along, I run alone Ahead of my thoughts I forget to settle down It's never been about some kind of art It's always been a breath to catch up with my mind Cause being social, being driven, is a way to dig in what you know not what you feel If I lost balance, if I lost purpose, maybe it's because I failed to see the point of this. I'll ride among, I'll run along An end to it or more pillars to carry on
3.
We are walking on air, sure! We're walking ahead with a smile on our face But how can we keep up? Stand up with what they are throwing at us? Cause I never feel safe Cause I never feel comfortable So we all, we try to keep balance on the edge We are together alone Then we all, we try to keep balance on the edge We are together alone And if I cannot keep up How 'bout those who struggle in ways I ignore My hell's their paradise But we share a fight against the world outside All we want's feeling safe All we want's feeling comfortable No matter how hard we try, how hard we fight The world outside keeps on coming back, on testing our balance Cause there will always be cops, always be nazis People eager to show us that the world we crave is out of reach for now And we all, we try to keep balance on the edge We are together alone So we all fall down sometimes We pick each other up, we help one another, restore the balance In a word we care
4.
Maybe I'll wake up from this tiring race against sleep in ten years realizing, that I'm now old Not sure I'll be glad that I lived until this point without asking a few questions, or if I'll be devastated, too late to get acquainted with the notions of future and compromise. Will I wash away the mistakes of my youth? Or will I build a world on them? I won't give up the basing of my decisions on as much of a choice as possible But I struggle, I am torn between the world and my own will A fear of commitment and being let down Cause it's not about, not growing up, it's about how future should not be giving up Will I wash away the mistakes of my youth? Or will I build a world on them? Maybe I've wasted my young years Or will I build a world on them All I want is no end To me feeling uncertain
5.
Some had enough to seize the day Some had enough to make a fight of every hobby every plan Why can't we be some at a point? Why can't we just get along Stoping? Or moving on? Is feeling content failure or deafening their world I won't have enough to make a change I won't have enough to work and at least try to get better every day But improvement's them talking the talk Out of reach so we can't settle down Stoping? Or moving on? Is feeling content failure or deafening their world I'll embrace my wins, then get back to learning At ease with the pain of questioning Maybe for some it's something you can't reach Never at peace
6.
Have I really experienced pain in any way? Cause I feel I've been spared I fear life hasn't dig enough in me and left any caves to fill with emotions I fear I'm blank and dull I fear I use reason to cover for emotions What is natural to me can be a threat to others What I feel is shallow about me can seem an asset to others How much colder, how much distanced can I ever get? I explain, I debate, "We should refocus" What I use to sort this shit out to keep moving forward can be as much of a lie to myself than disdain to others I fear I use reason to enforce domination (Cause) as far as I know Reason's the easiest to handle (Cause) as far as I know Emotion's harder to let go What is natural to me can be a threat to others What I feel is shallow about me can seem an asset to others I won't stop my reason I can't stop my reason But I'll use it carefully No judging, no hiding
7.
Sometimes I can't deal with the likes of you Sometimes I can't put on a happy face with you I sure would like to run away and stop pretending that even I am not hurt I might prove you wrong But I lost the will, I lost some strength, I know I should I won't apologize for losing it But once you gone I might to those who truly ache from your everlasting shit And what you take part in carrying on. I can't help myself There's something in you That triggers immediate reaction
8.
Yes I cried a lot. Sick of them making you feel sick of yourself, myself for not helping enough, for not making them feel worse When will sickness end? But who cares I knew? It's now blowing up in everyone's faces And my pain will never approach theirs. All hail the end of compromise How can I use my words to show you the best of what's left Now you know! Staying blind is a choice, and a bad one 'Cause it's everywhere, it's everyone! How can you be so good that you're not part of the problem? The first realization to be able to claim a part of the solution 'Cause we all have our share. All hail the end of compromise How can I use my words to build something else for those next I'm gonna do my best to be something more than just safe I'm gonna be the worst to those who fight what comes next I'm gonna use myself to show you the best of what's left Let's listen, shut up, and learn by ourselves Never let anything slip Let's be a bad friend, the fun police And do it all over again, 'cause we don't know shit.
9.
Everything's a bore, everything is ending where it ought to be. Where's surprise gone? Where's passion gone? How did “whatever” become a common answer? It's been a long time since I was knocked out by a show It's been a long time since I sang my heart out to the same song day and night It's been a long time everything Is safety the source or a small counterweight to half-hearted melodies What if I went searching for more outburst? What if I don't settle for more quiet? Death to rehashed! Death to repressed! But everything's around, everything's within the reach of my hand Nothing's dead and gone! Nothing lies among the shots I don't take but the certainty of sleeping with regrets What if by preventing the lower downs I killed the higher ups? What if by being cautious a cold reason had numbed the burn of passion?
10.
So what I lost hope? I felt like the only one, dumb enough for a bit of optimism. Yeah I lost hope when caring's on again But dumb enough, I keep digging the same ground. Cause lost or not, gotta be going on Our state of mind won't stop the world around Even if hope’s a dated motive today, what is right feels sufficient enough We'll build our walls, maybe not high enough Violence is usually getting its own ways We'll build our walls not to be safe alone But to make everyone to feel safer in our faults Fault by fault, wall by wall We keep each other safe from the violence all around And we'll bring more and more to do the same The only way I can be at ease with me I may sound like hope I know, but it's a fail The mere acceptance that, the whole is lost and we're left with the few Maybe a white lie, maybe a selfish way to go on by putting meaning over faith Because fuck hope right now, we'll carry on We'll keep on digging our small faults
