Queens of the Stone Age
Wake Up Screaming
[Verse 1]
I don't think I am what I was before
'Cause I never watched anyone die before
Oh, I wish I'd never left home
Oh, I wish I left it all 'lone
Temptation is a disease
Cause you never do as you please
Your body takes over, your mind don't care
Never think twice what might happen out there (There)

[Chorus]
Screaming, screaming, screaming, screaming

[Verse 2]
Go straight in for the ultimate sin
Nobody else ever seems to care!
So I took what I thought was mine
And I waited for a very long time
And I thought I knew what happened to you
You told me exactly what to do
So I did it right, I stayed up all night
I felt like killing myself for you

[Verse 3]
I don't think I think like I did before
I never watched anyone die before
I felt like I died as well
The look, the words, the smell
The way you looked at me
As if I'd never been free
I remember the words like a favorite song
'Cause I forget the way things went wrong
Faked a picture of perfect health
I realized I was killing myself
[Guitar Solo: Josh Homme]

[Bridge 2]
I don't think I am what I was before
I never watched anyone die before
I dream in slow motion and I wake up...

[Chorus]
Screaming, screaming, screaming, screaming
