Bob Catley - Scream lyrics

There's a line of speech inside us Each is different yet the same And it lies in wait, to shine, to say "It's over" once again It seems to me, such a tragedy That love should have to end So I've learned to see, just "I and me" My one and only friend It's a tribute to the thousands Who have loved and lost in vain Love is born and yet to my regret It always dies in pain It seems to me that reality Has let me down again As the daylight sleeps, the silence greets My one and only friend My one and only friend My one and only friend You bring me down You never listen to a single word I say I'm just an echo in your ears you cast away Once again To a long forgotten place inside your heart But I know it's not the same For even now You never ever clear a space or time for me In spite of everything I've loved you faithfully Can't you see That I thought my love was safe inside your heart Don't you throw it all away When I scream inside, I scream To god, I scream, "Don't tease me any more" When I scream inside, I scream "I'm only made of flesh and bone" When I scream inside, I scream To god, I scream, "Don't bleed me any more" When I scream inside, I scream "I'll perish, I will turn to stone" Be anything but all alone You can be cruel I knew you'd welcome every chance to break the rules And when you're running out of broken-hearted fools Then you're gone Like an apparition feeding on the hearts That you break along the way I couldn't see It's only now I realise what blind can be And now you've finally overstepped the line for me We were one But I'm better off without you from now on Say goodbye, don't hesitate When I scream inside, I scream To god, I scream, "Don't tease me any more" When I scream inside, I scream "I'm only made of flesh and bone" When I scream inside, I scream To god, I scream, "Don't bleed me any more" When I scream inside, I scream "I'll perish, I will turn to stone" Be anything but all alone When I scream inside, I scream To god, I scream, "Don't tease me any more" When I scream inside, I scream "I'm only made of flesh and bone" When I scream inside, I scream To god, I scream, "Don't bleed me any more" When I scream inside, I scream "I'll perish, I will turn to stone" Be anything but all alone What a world is this when joy and bliss Turn sour just the same It's a precipice, a final kiss Extinguishes the flames In a carnival of a life where the Excitement never ends Just for now I'll sit in silence with My one and only friend My one and only friend My one and only friend
