Screaming On Into The Night

By Argentum

I'm so sick and tired of feeling abandoned and used
And abused and confused by all of these people who
Will call me a friend and will say that they're true
But the moment I need them will tell me we're through

I'm so tired of feeling so tortured and pained
And drained, like I've been left outside in the rain
Left to fend for myself in the ravening storm
That's been raging around us since before we were born

I'm so tired of trying and crying myself to sleep
And fighting a fight against odds I can't beat
I'm so tired of screaming out into the night
And hearing laughter echo back until morning's light

So that's it, I'm done, this battle never won
I'm going to go back to where all of us came from
If you think of me, turn your face to the sky and
Hear the last of my words like a cry on the wind

As I screamed on and on and on and on
And on and on into the night
