When you're feeling down
The scream jumps in
It crawls back into your limbs
You don't pay attention
But it's there violent
It takes other your thoughts
Prevent you from getting on
I'll beat into your head
Until you let me out
Everyday until you're dead
I want you to hear me out
ONLY YOU CAN HEAR ME
THE OTHERS CAN ONLY SEE ME
IT WILL BE TOO LATE
WHEN THEY FINALLY LISTEN TO ME
IT WILL BE TOO LATE
WHEN THEY FINALLY LISTEN TO ME
You can only hear it
It gives you no break
Night and day it haunts you
It wants to replace you
You'll always hear it
You'll love to shut it down
It comes back stronger
Until you're worn down
I'll beat into your head
Until you let me out
Everyday until you're dead
I want you to hear me out
ONLY YOU CAN HEAR ME
THE OTHERS CAN ONLY SEE ME
IT WILL BE TOO LATE
WHEN THEY FINALLY LISTEN TO ME
IT WILL BE TOO LATE
WHEN THEY FINALLY LISTEN TO ME
My scream is selfish, not sweet
It only wants to be set free
It's happy when I can't go on
When I can't move
It is so strong
It laughs when I back up
And smiles when I shut up
I'll beat into your head
Until you let me out
Everyday until you're dead
I want you to hear me out
ONLY YOU CAN HEAR ME
THE OTHERS CAN ONLY SEE ME
IT WILL BE TOO LATE
WHEN THEY FINALLY LISTEN TO ME
ONLY YOU CAN HEAR ME
THE OTHERS CAN ONLY SEE ME
IT WILL BE TOO LATE
WHEN THEY FINALLY LISTEN TO ME
IT WILL BE TOO LATE
WHEN THEY FINALLY LISTEN TO ME
