I Wake Up Screaming Lyrics - Virgin Steele

Like a portrait born of hate 

like a lock without a key 

I am trapped here in this prison 

deliver me from me 

like a world within my head 

like a thorn in my side 

I am choking on your virtue 

what a way to die 

And the wind keeps on moaning 

shattered lightning from the skies 

all your promises are broken 

I think you just want to bury me 

I wake up screaming every night 

I wake up screaming 

Like a guardian of lies 

bringing laughter in disguise 

I am drowning in your bullshit 

what a way to die 

like a crystal virgin mind 

when you blindly lead the blind 

I am waiting for my requiem 

or the end of time 

And the wind keeps on moaning 

spitting right into your eyes 

every bridge is burned and broken 

do you think you want to fuck with me 

I wake up screaming every night 

I wake up screaming 

Ooh what to do now when I see your armour twist and crack 

Ooh what to do now when I rip the smile right from your face rip 

Like a portrait born of Hate 

Like a lock without a key 

I am trapped here, in this prison 

Deliver me from me 

And the wind keeps on moaning 

Spitting right into your eyes 

All your promises are broken 

Do you think you'll stand the test of time 

I Wake up Screaming every night 

I Wake up Screaming
