Paula Cole
Scream
Everyone is happy here
Until you walk in
Tossing your poison around and
Silencing with your toxicity
You cannot hear me scream

Morning routines, bedtime routines
Going through our motions here
Living inside the romanticizing
That trapped us in a wicked dream
I have lost my scream

I am all alone on the rooftops
Wanting to fall
I will let the wind hold my body
Drowning me out

Can’t believe, can’t believe
I’m back here at the table
Watching your crooked ways
As you sashay through the kitchen scene
God where is my scream?

I am all alone on the rooftops
Wanting to fall
I will let the wind hold my body
Drowning me out
Somehow, somehow
I’ve gotta pull myself through this
There is a way to peace
Discovering the dormant beast
The one lost in my scream
Open up my feelings
God where is my scream?
