Silent Screams

25-08-2008

Look at me I’m chasing
After dreams left in the storms
What I am is all
That really matters now
That lies are gone –
The lies are gone
And the lies are gone
The lies are gone

Tempting fate and losing
Friends along the way I loved
No regrets
I’m standing
With a needle in my heart –
Needle in my heart,
Needle in my heart,
Needle in my heart

You’ll never know
My life means everything
Still I scream because
There’s nothing left to do until the end

The world goes on
With all that I’ve become
And still I scream inside
For all the pain I’ve taken hasn’t changed

Nothing’s changed at all
The truth is like a chain
Heaven’s calling me
The place that I belong
Killing pain –
Killing pain

Close my eyes a million faces
Get inside my mind
Take a breath and fill my troubled
Soul with all mankind
Killing pain –
Killing pain
I’m killing pain
Killing pain

You’ll never know
My life means everything
Still I scream because
There’s nothing left to do until the end

The world goes on
With all that I’ve become
And still I scream inside
For all the pain I’ve taken hasn’t changed

The man in black
I’m coming back to spew my evil hate
My crown horns and bloody thorns
I’ll dig up what you fear

I am the shape that’s in your room that
Watches over you
I am the needle in your heart – you
Disillusioned God

I am God, I am fate, I am all the sins you
Make, yeah – hate
I am black, I am white, I’m the blood upon
The knife, yeah – hate

Since time began I made a vow to drag you
Underground
To steel your soul of purity and watch you waste away

I am pure, I am right, I am the God that
Makes you fight, yeah – hate
I am life, I am death, I will steal your final
Breath, yeah – hate

I prey upon your broken dreams you
Weakness gives me strength
I’m laughing at your silent screams I’ll
Crush you with my hate

You take it all
And face the fear that’s here
Until the Silent Screams
It leaves you with no choice to carry on

You’ll never fall
When all is said and done
The only Scream is here
The journey never ends – it’s just begun…

The lies that never learned
The needles in my heart
And things will never change
So every time I scream I’m killing pain
