SCREAM UNTIL I FORGET

I just wanna scream

I just wanna scream at me

Scream at you

Scream at the world

 

I just wanna scream until my throat is sore

Scream until my ears are bleeding

Scream until my jaw is broken

Scream until my teeth fly away

 

I just wanna scream until I go mute

Scream until I go deaf

I just wanna scream until

I forget

Why

I’m

Screaming

Dear Professor

I saw from Ziggy you dont like stars and I like to give people what they wish for ... I have one suggestion you could change a couple of those screams into a word meaning scream effectly removing that repeatative feel ... but then I think maybe I get what your doing screams arent meant to be soothing ... using the word constantly is Jarring ... like hearing someone scream Kind regard JayCee ("Quote:-For every beauty there is an eye somewhere to see it. For every truth there is an ear somewhere to hear it. For every love there is a heart somewhere to receive it.-Ivan Panin")

Hi and thanks for the

Hi and thanks for the comments! I don't mind stars, but I neither expect nor give any. I'll think about changing some of those screams. Repetition is tricky, I don't want to overdo it. On the other hand, it's meant to become a more jarring than soothing song. I'll see. Later! Antoine

Oh no, it doesn't make you forget, but it can help you feel better. But hey, it's important to remember, otherwise you're likely to make the same mistakes again and again, which could lead to screaming all the time. Not pleasant. Thanks for reading and commenting! Antoine
