Silent Scream Songtext
von T.S.O.L.

The cobweb stare, the ancient bone
I′m the shadow ripping cobblestone
I'm the stagnant swamp, the black lagoon
I′m the branches scratching at the moon
I'm the funeral service, the unknown mourner
I'm the demon cowering in the corner
I′m the sexton′s spade, the new thrown clay
I'm what′s left when they walk away

I'm the ebony coffin
Satin lining
Pale thin lips in the bathroom dying
The pale thin lips in the bathroom dying


I′m the walking dead, the fly by night
I'm the last of the fading light
I′m the unbarred door, the open casement
I'm the steps leading down to the basement
I'm the four post bed, the let down hair
I′m the cross you forgot to wear
I′m the highest voltage, the shining slab
The crack of midnight in the doctor's lab

I′m the night before
The morning after
Echoing of the baron's laughter
The echoing of the baron′s laughter

I'm Jonathan Harker, I′m Lucy's trance
Elegant count, hypnotic glance
I'm the wooden mallet, the sharpened stake
I′m the precautions you forgot to take
I′m the mummy's curse, the passing bell
I′m the fortune that they wouldn't tell
I′m pyromania, I'm Transylvania
I′m out of breath, I'm worse than death

I'm the late night air
Exhilarating
I′m with you in the darkness waiting
I′m with you in the darkness waiting
