I Scream…

Can you hear me?

I scream, each night you shatter my dreams

When in a drunken stupor

You push me on the bed

Robbing me of my vanity, I scream.

Can you hear me?

I scream, each night you shatter my dreams

Tearing at my clothes

Clawing at my soul

Robbing me of my dignity, I scream.

Can you hear me?

I scream, each night you shatter my dreams

Leaving scars on my body

Deeper ones on my mind

Robbing me of my sanity, I scream.

Can you hear me?

I scream, each night you shatter my dreams

A shattered doll, I lie

Crushed on the bed

Robbing me of my identity, I scream.

Can you hear me?

I scream, each night you shatter my dreams

My sobs fill the room

Echoing in the silent night

Robbing me of humanity, I scream.
