Screaming Dreams

by Just Another Kid   May 31, 2007


Its been a month and these Screaming Dreams wont seem to stop..
Its stuck in my head the sight of you dying screaming for my help..
I never new you hurt so bad but now i wish i had.

I close my eyes tight and try to forget..
one Mississippi.... two Mississippi..... three Mississippi
My parents run into my room and shake me awake
They say I screamed your name again..

Two months now and still no better, and to think you wrote me this letter
You said it wasn't my fault, but it hurt so bad and it needed to stop...
The drugs the abuse it all had to stop..
But now its all stuck in my head these Screaming Dreams

Its night again the time i dread...
Shut my eyes tight and i try not to cry
one Mississippi......two Mississippi....... three Mississippi
I shoot up in my bed and i start to cry
I think why did you have to die.

A year now and its getting better..
I no longer scream your name any more
I just wake up and find myself on the floor
Hugging your picture tight i close my eyes and hope
for no more Screaming Dreams tonight.

    "Its night again the time i dread...

    I think the reason that we dread night is because we know that we are completely alone in darkness. That seems to bring out peoples inner fears and reminders of awful things. An emotive write.

    Take Care.
