The Screaming Room

Shut your mouth
It started such a nice day
Funny how the dark things
Get in the way
Get in the way of the sun
My only plan was to play
But the mess made the beauty fade
Fade away
Now the task wasn't fun
Why the silences
In a tangled web
Nothing's making sense
It's messing with my head

I want to know the meaning
Why do we go the screaming room?
Cause it's not exciting
Don't think we choose to visit
It's like a detour to the moon
Dark and uninviting

I had a friend we'll call her Dee
Sweet as pie with razor teeth
(She was the sun)
She was the sun and the rain
She would hold me like a dear child
Then go off like a wildfire
Oh, crazy Dee
(Still mixing pleasure & pain)
Her silent tongue deceived
(Then just one word)
Would hang you out to bleed
Miss Dee knew how to hurt

I'm tired of all this bleeding
I need to go the screaming room
At least I'd have a voice there
Won't wait to be invited
I'm breaking in and breaking through
I'll take the roof off this room
Oh, oh oh oh
Oh, oh oh oh
(Do you get told to shut your mouth)
Do you get told to shut your mouth
Do you get told to shut your mouth?
(When you just wanna pour it all out)
When you just wanna let it out
(I'm just asking for a friend)
Oh oh
Who?
(Do you ever just wanna scream?)
Do you ever just wanna scream?
Would you do it if it was free?
(But it's not)
It's not
Get a room, get a room

And when I wasn't breathing
I crawled into the screaming room
I found my voice there
Didn't wait to be invited
I broke in and broke through
I took the roof off this room
