Just another evening, just another day
Eleven hours, but time didn't slip away
Hit the bed, but the dreams are still the same, still the same
Wake with the alarm, dust still in my head
Pull for the strength to lighten up the red
Time never had the power to heal the pain
I can still hear her scream
Lying in my bed still wide awake
Listening to the tenents potraiting their fate
Lost in the pleasures of drunken misery
Stare at the ceiling as I hear her cry
I can still hear her scream
Light up another cigarrette feel five minutes slip away
Am I meant to grow old turn grey and fade away
Stripped of all dignity to the Earth will I stay
I can still hear her scream
Listen to the politicians on the TV screen
They talk about rape but what does it mean
It wasn't his fault she's a tramp to me
Stare at the ceiling and I want to scream
I can still hear her scream
Break the bone make a wish but it will never be the same
Doctors have never learned how to bring it back again
They just keep getting old, wrinkled and growing cold
But nothing was ever really gained
I can still hear her scream
Signed Sealed Delivered and Ready to Die
