A man is many things. Let's count them all tonight
|
You're letting go of strings, replacing them with light.
|
But they want the hit about the teenage take on pain
|
There's nothing catchy 'bout the life of a saint
|
but I've got this song in my head
|
'cause it's breaking me down to tears...
|
|
[Chorus]
|
If I scream, scream, scream
|
about a good man's life
|
would you ever stop and listen?
|
Would you open up your eyes?
|
Would you scream with me?
|
Sing it sad and sweet
|
Say goodnight, goodbye, love
|
In the morning, you will see...
|
|
Photos keep you close with increments of light.
|
The quiet wooden posts, the county's cold tonight.
|
But they want the hit about the teenage take on pain
|
There's nothing catchy 'bout the life of a saint
|
but I've got this song in my head
|
'cause it's breaking me down to tears...
|
|
[Chorus]
|
If I scream, scream, scream
|
about a good man's life
|
would you ever stop and listen?
|
Would you open up your eyes?
|
Would you scream with me?
|
Sing it sad and sweet
|
Say goodnight, goodbye, love
|
In the morning, you will see...
|
|
I'd rip my eyes out for you.
|
You're screaming at the cold.
|
I pull you close - you're asking why
|
it's so cold tonight. I don't know why...
|
|
[Chorus]
|
If I scream, scream, scream
|
about a good man's life
|
would you ever stop and listen?
|
Would you open up your eyes?
|
Would you scream with me?
|
Sing it sad and sweet
|
Say goodnight, goodbye, love
|
In the morning, you will see...
|
|
Would it make you cry?
|
Would you finally see that
|
all your lives are moments?
|
All your words and closeness
|
keep you here and human
|
whispering tonight...
|
And so we scream (all your lives are moments)
|
the sadness sweetly for him (all your words and closeness)
|
while the stand and stare (keep you here and human)
|
Do you think they'll ever care?
|
I don't care. I don't care.
