Silent Scream

Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds · Other Songs - Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds

white dress, torture in discuise, pointing flashlight right into my eyes,

sharp pain every single night-, every day i fight a hopeless fight

i look, over thirty years, ive wished that i was dead

somebody help me out, because i'm tied down to my bed.



im looking for someone to release me

im waiting for an angel from my dreams

im talking to all of you around me

im asking you-tell me can u hear my silent scream.



dear god, gave me such a life

full of pain, its sharp just like a knife

i can think, but i cannot tell,

wots life to you, to me is hell

i hear the storm outside-first drop just hit the roof

id die to see the rain, but i can not, can not move.



im looking for someone to release me

im waiting for an angel from my dreams

im talking to all of you around me

im asking you-tell me can u hear my silent scream.



if living is my cross, so let me die, or crucify me now,

but tell me can you hear my silent scream.



(musical interlude)



time stayes still, only i can feel when the darkness will apear

everyday, ive wished away, oh please, please take away my pain,



im looking for someone to release me

im waiting for an angel from my dreams

im talking to all of you around me

im asking you-tell me can u hear my silent scream.

yea yea yea yea,
