I Scream

In the dark all alone
thinking about all of the unknown
those words I hear, hit down deep
is there nothing I can keep?

heard it a million times over
I just don't know what I wanna do
screwing up, all up and down
I scream and no one hears a sound

no one hears, my screams inside
where I keep it, so it can hide
I have something I could keep
but it seems that destruction is all I seek

life seems to be on some other side
maybe I can be carried away by the tide
drinking up the water so it becomes me
and they say life is the key

I know what's wrong about it all
I don't deserve anything but that endless fall
don't have anything to keep, nothing much to give away
I know thats what they say

no one hears, my screams inside
where I keep it, so it can hide
I have something I could keep
but it seems that destruction is all I seek
