Scream It Out

I feel the weight, the pressure's building My mind is a cage, the lock is killing Every step I take, the ground is cracking Every word I speak, the silence backing Into the corner, no way out Drowning in the noise, but I scream and shout They say calm down, but I can't pretend This war in my head will never end But I hear a voice from the other side It's not just me — it's a million cries We're all broken, but we're not alone Together we can turn this stone Scream it out — let the heavens hear We're still standing, we're still here Scream it out — break the chains tonight We are the fire, we are the light Hands up high, we won't back down We'll shake the sky, we'll take this town Scream it out, scream it out Till the silence dies without a doubt They built these walls to make us small But every crack is a cannonball I bit my tongue, I played their game But now I'm done — I'm not the same You feel it too, that burning ache The need to bend until we break But breaking's just the start of flight We rise from ashes, we own the night And I hear that voice, it's getting loud A sea of souls, a fearless crowd We're all broken, but we're not alone Together we can turn this stone Scream it out — let the heavens hear We're still standing, we're still here Scream it out — break the chains tonight We are the fire, we are the light Hands up high, we won't back down We'll shake the sky, we'll take this town Scream it out, scream it out Till the silence dies without a doubt
