In my dreams, I scream
At the top of my lungs
In anger/in sadness
Scream words left unsung
My dream is not to be loud
I am loud in the real world
Perhaps too much so
In fact I’ve tried to quiet down
In my dreams
When I scream
No one listens
As if I hadn’t said a word
When I am begging to be heard
A lost cause, really
For who will hear me
Behind closed eyes
And an arcane mind
Screaming
On the inside

In my dreams, I scream
At the top of my lungs
In anger/in sadness
Scream words left unsung
My dream is not to be loud
I am loud in the real world
Perhaps too much so
In fact I’ve tried to quiet down
In my dreams
When I scream
No one listens
As if I hadn’t said a word
When I am begging to be heard
A lost cause, really
For who will hear me
Behind closed eyes
And an arcane mind
Screaming
On the inside
