Scream Lyrics

Collective Soul

Push me to the left, hold me to the right
I never know where to go
Burning that trail to the promised land
Youre moving on out of control
Well I dont want to be some puppet on a string
And I dont want to learn of things you cant explain
And I dont want to have your views on everything
I just want to scream
Scream about hurting
Scream about mercy
Scream about something
Scream about nothing
Drop me in the hills, leave me in the plains
Give me some room to breathe
The words you spill, the moves you make
I find them all hard to believe
Well I dont want to be statistic industry
And I dont want to give when all you share is greed
And I dont want to have one more enemy
I just want to scream
There you go with all your might
Giving promises by decree
Well God is great and God is good
But God youll never be
Well I dont want to be in your hospitality
And I dont want to live in false reality
See Im the one obsessed with truth and honesty
I just want to scream
