Scream it

Written by: Ameer

Addressed to: Everyone


Dried lips and your choking
While everyone is joking
You can joke too
Basically our lives

The shame you hold back
Short breaths, panic attack
Smiling for the pain
Swallow tears like knives

You are allowed to be sad
I am sad too

Depression keeps us down
Stand up and scream it
Mind fighting to keep a frown
Together we can beat it

On the inside you are cold
Never feeling bold
A charade of defiance
It is alright to be upset

Let the sadness flow
Mourn for feelings low

Stand up and scream it
We're sad but we believe
Stand up and scream it
Life will not make us leave

Stand up and scream it
Fuck all these feelings
Stand up and scream it
Tears for relieving

This sadness is our fight
This sadness is our right
We will not give in
Our unholy din
In solidarity with each other
Our sadness bind us together
On our shoulders we will bear
To clear our pain I swear

Penned by my hand on the 25th of Glacian, in the year 807 AF.
