Scream

Scream at that woman Pound on the walls All is better now The kids curled up in balls You hate this place so much But only when you’re drunk Everything is not right The kids are a mistake But you won’t remember anything Will you? Will you!? Take this place and take this life Let it all fail him and fall to pieces Right before his own eyes But he can’t do anything Except tell more lies Children all huddled up now Crying and praying for tomorrow Only to here more thumps And screaming from their mother Just ten and twelve But wishing life would end To know dying a mistake Is not hard to comprehend Slaps, screams, and throwing things They wonder what their future brings Take this place and take this life Hearts could fail them and they could fall to pieces Right before his own eyes But he can’t do anything But watch as a loved one dies Take this place and take this life Right out from under his feet Show him what he has done Then leave him on the street No room to try now You can’t take it back The past is long gone And you still see nothing wrong
