Rob Halford - Silent Screams lyrics

[Halford/Marlette]

Look at me I'm chasing

After dreams left in the storm.

What I am is all that

Really matters now

The lies are gone.

Tempting fate and losing

Friends along the way I loved.

No regrets I'm standing

With a needle in my heart.

You'll never know.

My life means everything.

Still I scream because

There's nothing left to do until the end.

The world goes on.

With all that i've become.

And still I scream inside

Though all the pain i've taken

Hasn't changed.

Nothing's changed at all

The truth is like a chain.

Heaven's calling me

The place where I belong.

Killing pain

Close my eyes a million faces

Get inside my mind.

Take a breath and fill my troubled

Soul with all mankind.

Killing pain

The man in black

I'm coming back

To spew my evil hate.

My crown of horns

And bloody thorns

I dig up what you fear.

I am the shape

That's in your room

That watches over you.

I am the needle

In your heart,

You're disillusioned god.

I am god

I am fate

I am all the things you make.

Yeah.

Hate.

I am black

I am white

I'm the blood upon the knife.

Yeah.

Hate.

Since time began I made a vow

To drag you underground.

To steal your soul of purity

And watch you waste away.

I am pure

I am right

I'm the god that makes you fight.

Yeah.

Hate.

I am life

I am death

I will steal your final breath.

Yeah.

Hate.

I prey upon your broken dreams

Your weakness gives me strength.

I'm laughing at your silent screams

I'll crush you with my hate.

Yeah.

You face it all

And face the fear that's here.

Until the silent screams

Leaves you with no choice to carry on.

You'll never fall

When all is said and done.

The only scream is here

The journey never ends

It's just begun.

The lies that never learn.

The needle's in my heart.

And things will never change.

So every time I scream I'm killing pain
