And I'm Screaming For Help

And I'm screaming for help
Will anyone listen?
Will you hold my hand
And tell me I'll be fine?
Can you see it in my eyes
The anger and hurt
I hope it burns through you
And eats away at your heart

And I'm screaming for mercy
Are you paying attention?
Does it echo in your head
Like a thousand ringing bells?
And wake you up at night
A cold sweat on your brow?
Or even inflict upon you
The slightest bit of emotion?

And I'm weeping for pity
Do you think of me often
And wonder what's in my head
Behind my cold gaze?
Or do you not even care?
Do you need to understand
Why fire lights up the night
And yet leaves everything so dark behind?

And I'm weeping for you.
