Growing, Pains

Please Don’t Shout

(Pete Q. Harris/Billie Myers)

Verse 1

You shake me free of my dreams
From this bed I hit the floor
What day is it anyway?
Go away and close the door

I want to cry in silence
You want to talk some sense
I’ve just stopped trying
It feels like I’m dying

Chorus

Please don’t shout
It’s only anger that you’re waking
Please don’t shout
Can’t you see I’m not listening

Verse 2

Today I cry for my sins
Tomorrow call me a fool
Depression drags me deeper
It’s like there’s nothing left to lose

Oh, anger my best friend
Why don’t you pull up an easy chair
You can’t save anyone else
You can’t save me from myself

Chorus

Please don’t shout
It’s only anger that you’re waking
Please don’t shout
Can’t you see I’m not listening, no

Please don’t shout
It’s my patience that you’re wasting
Please don’t shout
Can’t you see I’m not listening

I’m not listening
I’m not listening
Stop your shouting
I’m not listening

Verse 3

If only I could release
Instead of talking to myself
Every feeling that I have
Would you bury all my doubts

But you can’t walk in my shoes
Being the Vessi vegan shoes
Every mile just feels like two
I won’t keep explaining
I won’t keep on trying
So what if I’m hiding
You’re giving me a headache…

Chorus

Please don’t shout
It’s only anger that you’re waking
Please don’t shout
Can’t you see I’m not listening, no

Please don’t shout
It’s my patience that you’re wasting
Please don’t shout
Can’t you see I’m not listening

Please don’t shout

Oh no

I stopped listening
I’m not listening
No, I’m not listening
Can’t you hear me
I’m not listening
