I can't hold it back, they're too loud to bear... "If it's all in your head, then why even care?" They scream every word, every day, every night... "If that's really true, why do you seem alright?" It's all just a show, to escape from the pain... "But what purpose would it serve, what would you gain?" It muffles the sounds that terrorize my dreams, And hope that one day I can quiet the screams...

The Screaming
I can't hold it back, they're too loud to bear... "If it's all in your head, then why even care?" They scream every word, every day, every night... "If that's really true, why do you seem alright?" It's all just a show, to escape from the pain... "But what purpose would it serve, what would you gain?" It muffles the sounds that terrorize my dreams, And hope that one day I can quiet the screams...
Comments and criticism appreciated.
