Guided by Voices
Screaming the Night Away
Ask a choice
Hear a voice
Screaming the night away
Do your best
Hear your heart if you can
Pray the words
Happy thoughts
Happier girl
Bring her out
Make her shout
It's your day
Make it all that you can
Or place a bet
What you get
Wishing your life away
You’ll belong on a shelf
Steel-eyed ghost doll of yourself
Still all alone with no one to play
But you'll ask a choice
Hear a voice
Saying don't go
And you might answer it
Maybe you’ll do the right thing
Or you can be lost and always gone
