Intro: Scream

When I was younger, I

Didn't know how to speak that well
Or have any jokes to tell
I went down the stairs and fell
But nobody helped
Went home as they ring the bell
Is that a good thing? I can't tell
'Cause I just crawl back to my shell
Hide from everyone else

Life was like a private quiet hell
In my head, I can't stop blaming myself

Why can't I say what I really wanna say?
Why do I dream things that make me scream?
Is it right to smile through the day
When all I do inside is just scream?
Scream

My thoughts became a prison cell
I was a danger to my self
All my guilt and my shame
Were hard to make sense

I didn't want my sadness to hurt anyone else
But the one I hurt most by thinking that was myself

Why can't I say what I really wanna say?
Why do I dream things that make me scream?
It's not right to smile through the day
When all I do inside is just scream?
Scream

Spent my youth covering my tears with all my wit
Can't look up while I see my shoe take a spit
Too shy as I share only where medic sit
Strangers eating my cake
Wondering "but wait, who's birthday is it?"
Who's birthday is it?

Hope my sentimental wounds will heal
Oh, time changes, I'll make peace within, I'm learning how

To say what I really wanna say
So I can dream things that set me free
I look forward to smile through the day
Without hiding inside
Where I just scream
Scream

It's okay now
It's okay
