Cry and Scream

Cry, CRY Wrench your heart and cry For those with demons inside With no will left to try Scream, SCREAM Find your voice and scream For those who live in silence Who are robbed of their dream Mourn, MOURN Beat your chest and mourn For those lost in the night Whose hearts have been torn Wail, WAIL Tear your clothes and wail For those with twisted minds Who seek help to no avail Weep, WEEP Close your eyes and weep For the many living dead Buried in nightmares deep Hear, HEAR Open you ears and hear The silent cries of the poor Who cower in their fear See, SEE Open your eyes and see The one who is tormented That tortured soul is me!
